Two Delta Air Lines jets collided on a taxiway at Georgia’s Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport on Tuesday morning, knocking off a chunk of one plane’s tail section.
Delta Flight 295 was taxiing for departure to Tokyo at 10:10 a.m. ET when its wing tip struck the tail of Endeavor Air Flight 5526, which was headed to Lafayette, Louisiana, the Federal Aviation Administration said in a statement. The FAA said it would investigate the incident.
Delta also confirmed the collision, saying an Airbus A350 and a CRJ-900 operated by one of its subsidiaries were involved. No injuries had been reported, the airline said.
Photos on X showed emergency crews surrounding the regional jet, with major damage visible.
No long delays or other flight cancellations were reported at the airport, which is the world’s busiest, as a result of the incident.
It’s unclear whether the collision was the result of pilot deviation, an error by air-traffic control, or another factor.
The FAA has been investigating a rash of near-miss incidents at US airports that have stumped experts.
