This took skill on United's part.

How many United passengers had to be beaten because of this?

Who writes this stuff — “a wing clipped a flight”?.
No, a wing of a United plane clipped part of an American Airlines plane. Probably the wing.
To: Morgana
Why was the United airplane taxiing to the runway in Austin for a flight to Austin?

United flight 898 was taxiing from Gate 19 to the runway for its flight to Austin
United 898 was flying from Austin to Austin?

It was a wing clipping a wing.
I doubt if they even scraped the paint off either wing.
The sad part is - I heard passengers on both planes were stuck and could not return to the gate for several hours while officials from both airlines pointed fingers at each other and waited for the FAA.

Lucky they didn’t have another “Tenerife” on their hands.

Why was the United airplane taxiing to the runway in Austin for a flight to Austin? Very bad reporting and no editing.

There are two airports in Austin. Considering how bad Austin traffic sucks - perhaps it would be better to actually fly from Austin to Austin.
Seriesly.
To: Flash Bazbeaux
The article said the wing clipped the tail of AA.
Dinging your, and another multi-million dollar aircraft, full of passengers on the ground, is not a resumé enhancer.
To: Morgana
Almost the anniversary of the accident at Teneriffe on March 27, 1977. They took the US bodies to Dover AFB for identification back then. Good thing this was only a scrape.
To: Ezekiel
Why fly if you can drive. Have you driven in Austin traffic? It's almost as bad as taxiing on the AUS ramp.

It was a round-trip.
