Title: KJFK - 081517 - DAL2503 strikes AAL290
Post by: cptbrw on August 16, 2017, 08:53:17 PM

While taxiing for takeoff the winglet of DAL2503, a Boeing 737 bound for Seattle, struck the horizontal stabilizer of AAL290, a Boeing 757 bound for Dublin Ireland. The accident resulted in damage to both aircraft which subsequently returned to their gates.  There were no injuries and both flights were rescheduled on new aircraft which departed several hours later.

Clip is edited to radio traffic relevant to the incident.
