Spirit Airlines Airbus A320 Clips Parked US Airways Airbus A320 at Fort Lauderdale Airport
Two planes were damaged when a Spirit Airlines aircraft clipped a parked US Airways jet at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport Monday night, authorities said.
The incident happened shortly before 10 p.m. when the wing of the Spirit Airlines Airbus A-320 clipped the tail section of the US Airways Airbus A-320 while it was taxiing in, Broward Sheriff's Office spokesman Mike Jachles said.
This is more common that you may think. Rampers pushed a SKYWEST CRJ900 into one of our CRJ900's.. Wing Tip to Wing Tip... Almost cut our winglet completely off.. Buryed it 1/2 through.
Broward Sheriff Fire Rescue says a taxiing Spirit Airlines Airbus A-320 clipped a US Airways Airbus A-320. The US Airways jet was parked Monday night in a remote area away from the gate at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport.
