Delta, Japan Airlines Planes Collide In US
A Japan Airlines plane and a Delta Airlines plane have collided in Seattle, United States of America.
Passengers were deplaned and bused to the terminal. No injuries were reported, and the cause remains unknown.
A passenger onboard shared footage of the wing catching fire during takeoff.
The incident occurred exactly one week after a passenger plane and an Army Black Hawk helicopter crashed midair near D.C., killing 67.
The incident involved a taxiing Japan Airlines aircraft “that appears to have struck” the tail of a parked Delta Air Lines aircraft, according to a statement from the airport, posted to X.
“There is minimal impact on airport operations as this occurred on a taxi lane,” according to the statement.
“On Monday, Delta Flight 2090, carrying 158 passengers, was travelling from JFK in New York to Orlando when it was diverted to Raleigh due to an ‘odor in the cabin.’
“Passengers and crew on United Airlines Flight 1382 on Sunday were evacuated at George Bush Intercontinental/Houston Airport due to a “reported engine issue,” the Federal Aviation Administration, FAA, confirmed
