AirBus A380 Crash
 

Just glad I wasn't on the model aircraft it clipped

Oops.... :lol:

That is going to cost a fortune. Not to fix the planes but the compensation claims from the people on board the other plane. And what better place for a compo claim to go in other than the Usa.
They will all be seeking millions.

Air France Flight 7 F-HPJD bound for Paris, was taxiing on a runway when its left wingtip struck the tail of Comair Flight 6293, which had just landed from Boston and was taxiing to its gate at Kennedy, one of the nation's busiest airports, Peters said.

Both jets were being towed to a ramp area for inspection, Peters said. The extent of the damage was unknown.

The FAA didn't immediately say how many people were on the double-deck Airbus A380, which can carry 525 passengers in a three-class configuration or more than 850 in a single-class configuration. Air France didn't immediately return a telephone message seeking comment.

The Comair CRJ 700 Regional Jet was carrying 62 passengers and four crew members, said Betsy Talton, a spokeswoman of Atlanta-based Delta Air Lines Inc., for which Comair operates regional flights. All the passengers were taken off the plane and into a terminal, she said

Ouch!! Wing-tip strikes are more common than you imagine. The aircraft usually get sorted through insurance companies, but as bodgit says, the claims from those on the regional jet will be giving the lawyers another couple of supercars for their garages.
