Ryanair kissed each other

[hetfield]

Spanish love affair at LEGE?

[Just a spotter]

Two Ryanair planes have collided in the siding waiting (zone prior to the runway) from Gerona airport when both moved to the head of the track to start the takeoff. The incident took place at 11:10 hours in the morning and there have been wounded.

The first aircraft has the left wing grazed the tail of another plane, which was in the siding of the head of the runway waiting for permission to access it. According to official sources of Aena, the damage to the aircraft "have been imperceptible," although security procedures have forced the return of both to the parking areas and landing of passengers. The aircraft concerned are those for flights 9727 and 9111, bound for Gran Canaria and Turin, respectively.

Subsequently the incident, the aircraft involved have moved on their own until the parking area opposite the terminal, where passengers were able to disembark normally.

"Siding", "track", surely these were two Ryanair trains. This should be moved to PTDRuNe (Professional Train Drivers Rumour Network).

A serious clobbering! One winglet sheared near the root and the horizontal stab almost severed through.

Doesn't seem to be serious according to this source:

[Fargoo]

Mmm, so what is it? Wingtip and stab sliced off/through or imperceptible brushing gracefully past each other?

[Runway 31]

As they both took off later would it be as bad as suggested, a horizontal stabiliser almost severed through?

[Pugilistic Animus]

yep, planes are so cute sometimes


Freakin' adorable

Maybe the flights took off with different aircraft?

Goodness me. That was the point of my post. When I said "go figure", I thought you would.

The local press is now reporting that the incident occured during pushback. If this is the case it puts a whole new light on things.
