[JAKARTA] Two Indonesian passenger planes clipped wings as they were about to take off from Jakarta's main airport, an airline said Tuesday, the latest accident in the country's beleaguered aviation sector.
The planes operated by domestic carrier Lion Air were Sunday heading towards a runway at Soekarno-Hatta airport, just outside the capital, when their wings collided.
There was only minor damage to the planes and no one was injured, said Edward Sirait, general affairs director at Lion Air.
After the collision between the Boeing and Airbus aircraft, all the passengers were transferred to other planes to continue their journeys, to Bali and Sulawesi islands, he said.
