Reports this morning that the Airbus was parked incorrectly.

  Airbus appeared to be moving at the time they contacted and the other aircraft wing ran into the Tail as the plane turned left.. I feel it should have waited till Clearence was assured. Cutting it too fine. You can't play dodgems with stuff this big.  It was the Job of the Boeing to avoid. The Other bloke could not do anything and the first thing they would notice is the whack when contact was made. Nev

First it was the Russians attacking Ukraine, then it was Israel attacking Iran - now it's extended to Boeings attacking Airbuses! What is the world coming to? Can't everyone just live in peace? 😄

Boeing has always attacked Airbus Industries since they first went into Business as a Multi Nation Conglomerate.  USA didn't allow Concorde a fair go either. Boeings SST with advanced metallurgy never went into Production . Above speed of sound  Air Travel has a severe COST penalty and always will .Travel at even Mach .82 raises the OAT  by over 30 deg C.   THAT'S a LOT of energy Man, and it gets a LOT more above the speed of sound . Flight Planning gets a lot more critical and weather dependent. Nev

Typical press (or TV) ignorance. I saw a graphic on the TV about a Boeing Airbus.
