LOL...check this out.
They really should not be allowing those airbuses at our airports. I always go out of my way to make sure I’m flying Boeing before I even purchase my ticket.

YIKES!!
Airline bullying—Only in Obama’s America.
Really a scary piece of video. I would not have wanted to be a crew member walking around in that cabin when the tail got clipped.
And THAT’S why they tell you to remain seated until the aircraft comes to a complete stop at the gate.
Can anyone identify the type of commuter jet involved?
I can’t imagine how the people in the Comair jet escaped injury. Even if they were belted in, think of what that would do to your neck.
This happens all the time. The pilot was texting and the co-pilot was twittering ...
They all evacuated, and then they exited the plane.
Duh! Years ago it was shown that the A380 is too big to use existing airports/taxiways.
I’m sure the other pilot didnt mean to wreck him. He just wanted to rattle his cage a little.
I wonder whose screw up this was? Pilots, controllers?
Wow! “Ladies and gentlemen, we have arrived at John F Kennedy International Airport. Please remain seated with your seatbelt fastened until the aircraft has come to a complete and final stop and the Captain has turned off the ‘Fasten seatbelt’ sign. When opening the overhead compartments, please keep in mind that objects may have shifted during flight. Oh SHIT!” Now you know why they say that. Remarkable that someone wasn’t seriously hurt...
Wow! That CRJ is built pretty damned tough!
More like 45 degrees -- but, still a big shock.
Look at the ATC camera shot.
The guys in the RJ cabin had quite a ride -- looks like their nose gear came off the ground for a few milliseconds. Hope they get to keep that A-380 wingtip winglet that was embedded in the tail of their A/C -- for a souvenir of French piloting expertise...
