BBJ/BBJ ding in RUH

The GA ramp in Riyadh is getting pretty congested & the inevitable happened last night when one BBJ (the transgressor) tried to taxi behind another BBJ (the violated). The pic is not clear but it shows the detached winglet of the transgressor firmly embedded in the rear of the left-hand elevator of the violated.



Fly safe out there & learn a lesson - if you drive a big bird, don't try to fit her in a small bird hole. There, but for the grace of God, go I.

Nope, sorry. They're a little sensitive on taking pictures there.

Looks like the winglet tore off quite cleanly. Well done on the photo; it couldn't have been easy.
