00:00:00,160 –> 00:00:03,279
Speaker 1: Hundreds of passengers ran out of two planes on Tuesday,

2
00:00:03,319 –> 00:00:07,080
early warning night at San Francisco International Airport in the

3
00:00:07,160 –> 00:00:11,640
Untied States, after United Airlines Flight Bowing eight seven seven

4
00:00:11,679 –> 00:00:14,439
heading to Hong Kong kiss the wing of another United

5
00:00:14,480 –> 00:00:18,559
Airlines flight eight six three destined for Sydney in Australia,

6
00:00:18,679 –> 00:00:21,960
with some level of damages to both aircrafts while on

7
00:00:22,039 –> 00:00:26,519
grand operations preparing for takeoff, forcing almost half a thousand

8
00:00:26,559 –> 00:00:30,280
passengers inside the two large air carriers to deplane, and

9
00:00:30,320 –> 00:00:35,200
according to the US Federal Aviation Administration FAA, the incident

10
00:00:35,280 –> 00:00:37,560
did not cause harm to any of those on board

11
00:00:37,640 –> 00:00:41,520
the planes. This the United Airlines saying it has removed

12
00:00:41,560 –> 00:00:45,039
the two planes from services to enable the aircraft engineer

13
00:00:45,159 –> 00:00:49,200
diagnosed the level of damages and recommend appropriately for their repairs.

14
00:00:50,039 –> 00:00:53,640
For Zatnews Media stated that in the early warning hours

15
00:00:53,679 –> 00:00:58,159
at San Francisco International Airport, a moment of unexpected chaos

16
00:00:58,280 –> 00:01:02,520
unfolded as two United aircas Lines Bowing seven seventy sevens,

17
00:01:02,560 –> 00:01:06,319
massive machines carrying the hopes and plans of hundreds of passengers,

18
00:01:06,680 –> 00:01:11,200
collided on the tarmac. The incident, which occurred during routine

19
00:01:11,239 –> 00:01:15,560
ground operations, left travelers shaken but unharmed, and cast a

20
00:01:15,560 –> 00:01:18,920
spotlight on the intricate dance of aircraft movements and one

21
00:01:18,959 –> 00:01:23,480
of the nation’s busiest airports. United flight eight seven seven,

22
00:01:23,879 –> 00:01:27,120
bound for Hong Kong and United Flight eight six three,

23
00:01:27,560 –> 00:01:30,640
destined for Sydney, became the center of attention as their

24
00:01:30,640 –> 00:01:34,200
wingtips grazed in a jarring encounter that halted both journeys

25
00:01:34,200 –> 00:01:38,439
before they could begin. The collision took place shortly after dawn,

26
00:01:38,799 –> 00:01:41,599
as Flight eight seven seven was being pushed back from

27
00:01:41,599 –> 00:01:45,040
its gate, a standard procedure where a tug vehicle maneuvers

28
00:01:45,079 –> 00:01:48,519
the aircraft away from the terminal. At the same time,

29
00:01:49,000 –> 00:01:53,079
Flight eight six three was taxiing nearby, navigating the complex

30
00:01:53,200 –> 00:01:57,439
network of taxiways that criss crossed the airport. The two planes,

31
00:01:57,760 –> 00:02:01,920
both bowing seven seven seven three Hudeurs, made contact in

32
00:02:02,000 –> 00:02:06,000
a slow but forceful scrape, leaving visible damage to their wingtips.

33
00:02:06,799 –> 00:02:10,280
Passengers aboard both aircraft, some of whom were preparing for

34
00:02:10,400 –> 00:02:14,599
long haul international flights, experienced a moment of confusion as

35
00:02:14,639 –> 00:02:19,680
the planes came to an abrupt stop. San Francisco International Airport,

36
00:02:20,000 –> 00:02:23,159
a hub for United Airlines, is no stranger to the

37
00:02:23,240 –> 00:02:27,960
high stakes choreography of ground operations, with planes moving like

38
00:02:28,000 –> 00:02:31,520
pieces on a chessboard, the margin for error is razor thin.

39
00:02:32,400 –> 00:02:36,840
Yet this incident underscored the challenges of managing such operations

40
00:02:36,919 –> 00:02:42,319
under pressure. Ground crews and emergency responders acted swiftly, cordoning

41
00:02:42,319 –> 00:02:44,840
off the area to assess the damage and ensure the

42
00:02:44,879 –> 00:02:50,039
safety of all involved. Remarkably, no injuries were reported, a

43
00:02:50,080 –> 00:02:53,120
testament to the protocols in place and the quick response

44
00:02:53,159 –> 00:02:58,039
of airport personnel. United Airlines, in a statement released shortly

45
00:02:58,080 –> 00:03:01,919
after the incident, expressed regret for the disruption to passengers

46
00:03:01,960 –> 00:03:06,439
plans and emphasized its unwavering commitment to safety. The airline

47
00:03:06,520 –> 00:03:11,000
confirmed that both aircraft were removed from service for detailed inspections,

48
00:03:11,400 –> 00:03:14,879
a process likely to involve engineers pouring over every inch

49
00:03:14,919 –> 00:03:18,439
of the damaged wingtips to determine the extent of repairs needed.

50
00:03:19,199 –> 00:03:23,560
For passengers, the cancelations meant rebooking on later flights, with

51
00:03:23,680 –> 00:03:26,800
some facing delays of several hours or more as United

52
00:03:26,840 –> 00:03:31,639
scrambled to accommodate them on alternative routes. CNN reported that

53
00:03:31,680 –> 00:03:34,360
the incident occurred for the second time in less than

54
00:03:34,400 –> 00:03:38,560
a month. The incident occurred about twelve thirty am local

55
00:03:38,639 –> 00:03:41,800
time in an area where air traffic controllers do not

56
00:03:41,919 –> 00:03:46,919
communicate with flight crews. The FAA added no injuries occurred

57
00:03:46,919 –> 00:03:51,039
and passengers on both planes deplaned normally. A United Airlines

58
00:03:51,120 –> 00:03:54,800
spokesperson said in a statement, we are working with our

59
00:03:54,840 –> 00:03:59,120
customers to rebook them on other flights. The FAA also

60
00:03:59,240 –> 00:04:03,000
is investigating an incident last month of Ronald Reagan Washington

61
00:04:03,080 –> 00:04:08,719
National Airport involving two American Airlines regional jets that bumped wings.

62
00:04:09,039 –> 00:04:12,800

00:04:20,519 –> 00:04:24,439
a statement Flight fifty four ninety was headed to Charleston,

66
00:04:24,560 –> 00:04:28,199
South Carolina, while flight four five two two was headed

67
00:04:28,199 –> 00:04:32,160
to JFK International Airport in New York, with seven members

68
00:04:32,160 –> 00:04:35,759
of Congress on board. The April incident came as the

69
00:04:35,839 –> 00:04:39,720
Washington airport is coping with a series of recent incidents,

70
00:04:39,759 –> 00:04:42,639
including a mid air collision in January that left sixty

71
00:04:42,720 –> 00:04:45,720
seven people dead and a military flyover in March that

72
00:04:45,839 –> 00:04:50,120
came dangerously close to a departing plane. The latter prompted

73
00:04:50,120 –> 00:04:55,199
a federal investigation focusing on an air traffic control communications breakdown.
