Two Delta Planes Collide On Taxiways\u00a0At\u00a0Atlanta Airport<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Delta Air Lines Flight 295, an Airbus A350, was taxiing for departure at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport on Tuesday morning when its wingtip struck the tail of a Bombardier CRJ900 aircraft operated by Endeavor, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Delta. The impact severely damaged the regional jet’s airframe, which was set to depart for Lafayette, Louisiana.<\/p>\n

ATL on X confirmed the incident around 10 am ET:\u00a0<\/p>\n

At 10:07 am, two aircraft made contact at the intersection of taxiways E and H on the north airfield. No injuries are reported. Passengers from one aircraft are being bussed to concourse B; the other aircraft taxied on its own power to its gate. There is minimal impact to ops.<\/em><\/p>\n

Flight tracking website Flightradar24<\/em> published data showing just how the incident unfolded:<\/p>\n

Based on playback, it appears to be a ground collision between a Delta A350 and Delta Connection CRJ-900 that resulted in the vertical and horizontal stabilizer of the CRJ being severed from the aircraft.<\/em><\/p>\n

Footage of the accident published on X shows the A350’s wing ripped off the CRJ900’s vertical and horizontal stabilizers.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Add this to the list of the growing number of ground and mid-air incidents that have sparked unease among travelers:<\/p>\n

Maybe US air travel would be just a tad safer if US Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg wasn’t so fixated on installing DEI hiring practices at the FAA<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
