FAA v/S BEA...

At least there will be an FAA investigation on this one...

...a few month ago an A330 of AF has cut the tail of another AF A380 in CDG...no BEA investigation !!!!

I am surprised after this recent AF A380 incident/accident in CDG, that the AF A380 pilots are still taxiing like their A330 "cowboys" colleagues !!
(the A380 of AF was holding short of the stand without passing any info of this to ATC, A330 PIC , captain, thought it would it "ok".... and boum !!!)

may be FAA will ask info about this A380/A330 incient in CDG a few month ago... to learn a bit about the "Air France safety culture"........!!!!!!!!
