Did the pilots get out and exchange insurance info?

(Sorry to those who read my joke made up for a previous couple of accidents. And to those who want good taste in humor.)
The pilot said to the copilot
“When I land this thing I am going to get me a piece of tail.”

Getting some new tail isn’t always a bad thing.

Flo was already there and they were thankful they had bundled their coverage with home, motorcycle and auto along with their personal liability from their flying jobs.

Even if it was parked in the wrong spot, you’d think pilots on the Boeing would know they didn’t have clearance.
Traffic rules apply - the person who had the ability to avoid the accident and didn’t is at fault.

Slicing through the tail easily like knife thru butter. Kinda like a jetliner sliced through WTC like knife through butter.

It was the right move to suspend all four involved pilots until things can be sorted out.

Must be some of the Vietnamese trainee pilots my dad talked about in 1972..."Open your eyes...and pull up...PULL UP...
PULL UP!!
They graduated and went home. Enid was a safer place after that.

INCORRECT.
A pilot taxiiing on a defined taxiway has an expectation of clearance. It cannot always be determined from his cockpit that his aircraft is clear.
