Just a lot of bad luck

I don't feel sorry for the groundies assuming it was their fault. It looks like one of the a/c has turned too wide and then clipped the nose of the other with its wingtip. Bad driving I guess. Unbelievably bad luck for the airline.

OJK just returned from Manila last week, all repairs done, just needed some final fitout of the cabin. Being stuck in Manila for 3 months meant a lot of mould started to appear so they basically replaced all the fabric in the cabin.

Interesting item of note: hundres of plastic bags of peanuts exploded when the a/c decompressed back in July. Must have made quite a mess.
