Is this fake, OcUK to the rescue...

Ok, so one of the airplane guys at work sent a link to a youtube video of a plane hitting another plane whilst it was taxiing.

So what do you lot think?

Caution: Comments section is a bit on the bad language side.

Well it's clearer than ufo footage

Looks real

 

[Waza]

Hmm maybe not a fake just pilot error.

 

[stulid]

Its real.

Been on the news, and the aviation authority are investigating.

 

[Jokester]

It's real, it's in the news here in the US, happened in New York last night I think it was.

It looks real to me. But that doesn't look like an A380. It's no where near big enough. Looks more like an A340

Edit: Low res video makes it hard to see. Turns out it is an A380. AFR7 is listed as an A380-800

Surely planes have sensors similar to car parking sensors

The pilot cant reverse, so parking sensors will be useless, its the push-back tug that pushes it out.

[joemo13]
