EasyJet planes clip wings in Manchester Airport collision

Two aircraft collided at the airport in Manchester Airport.

An airport spokesman said the Easyjet plane cropped the wings during a taxi at 06:30 BST. There was no injury report.

Since then, the passengers landed from both planes that would get up for Paris and Gibraltar respectively.

After a short suspension for a small damage to the aircraft, flights continued at the airport.

Tynisha Chaudhry, who was on the flight of Gibraltar with his wife, compared the collision with a car accident.

“The chill of the whole plane – it was a big hit.”

Authorized, “too many firefighters” and other security personnel joined the scene because passengers waited on the ship during the audits.

The atmosphere among the passengers was “good”, but some young passengers and their parents were “tense” before they were allowed to return to the terminal.

An Easyjet spokesman said: “Easyjet may confirm that the wing ends of the two aircraft contact this morning when switching to a taxi on the runway in Manchester Airport.

“Aircraft, renovation coupons, customers, spare planes are arranged to run flights.

“We apologize to customers for the delay of flights.

“The safety of our passengers and crew is our highest priority.”
