From what I could see this morning the tug was one of those towbarless ones and the a/c had moved forward and jammed it's nose wheels between the twp outriggers of the tug.
A major operation was in progress with air bags under the fwd & aft fuselage to support the weight whilst a lot of folks stood around scratching their heads and taking photos!!

By all accounts the a/c sustained minor damage but the tug was a mess. Which makes a change considering some of the recent posts concerning ground equipment and damage to a/c.

Now then, where are all those PRUNERS who were demanding that any ground staff that damage an a/c on the ramp should be immediately sacked????

Ahhh, the beautiful sound of silence!!!
