"...were involved in a low-speed collision during taxi,"

I think I can squeeze by there...

[Robert A Cook PE]

Waiting for the today’s democrat party liner national press corpse to blame this ground-ground taxiing collision to be caused “by Trump’s government shutdown” of the TSA and FAA because “the Republicans want to defund Medicare and end Social Security” because they “want tax cuts for the rich”.

Coming in 5, 4, 3, 2 .....

I wonder if the pilot responsible ever destroyed a McDonald’s because they forgot to add BBQ dipping sauce with her chicken nuggets.

Well, the wing fell off.

Joey...”like”, Annunziato, dude!

CBS News producer Joey Annunziato said. "But it almost, what it sounded like was like a sardine can kind of opening. Like it was like something was being sheared off and, lo and behold, we looked at the right side of the plane, and the wing looked like it was almost like off the plane."

And it was like, wow dude, like crazy.

Looks like the plane on the runway should have had right of way, and the plane on the crossing taxiway tried to hold up and yield but overshot.
There is no reverse gear on a jet

Buttplug and Evil Pres Jill pushed DEI and
Delta pushed these DEI pilots .
Delta never removed these Simpletons .
Here we are .
I am not flying United Delta or American with there DEI pilots .

[hal ogen]

I bet equity-hiring and DEI figure into this either at ground control or pilot training.

LaGuardia is one of the airports I avoid if at all possible.
The last time I flew through it we almost missed out connection. Even though we came in on time and were departing on the scheduled flight of the same airline.

They were rebuilding the terminals at the time. Even though one terminal was within walking/sight distance of the terminal we arrived on we had to take a NYC bus to get to the departure terminal. The bus took us out of the airport into Queens and then back in. Which meant we had to go through security again. No one spoke English it seemed. There were no clear signage on what to do.

We made it to our gate and the door was closed. At first they would not let us on. Eventually they did. We were the last people to get on the plane. Then we taxied out and sat waiting for our turn to take off. Which was at least another half hour.

After that stressful ordeal I decided to never again fly through LaGuardia. It was like flying through an airport in a third world country. Except, there were no chickens running around the terminal.

DEI at its finest.

Delta Employs Idiots..................

[Vigilanteman]

Isn't Endeavor the one which uses female pilots and brags about it? Even after landing one upside down in Toronto?

FWIW, I have no problem with QUALIFIED female pilots, but not the DEI qualification.

[Tell It Right]

Agreed. And perhaps a more pertinent catalyst would be people for the past few years, including airport workers fleeing the hellhole of New York.

Delta will work with all relevant authorities to review what occurred

Ya think? Pretty sure the FAA is going to be interested in this as well.
