Looks like a bad one at JFK. Who was to blame? Watch this space.

I hope you don't get your winglet sliced off Newcastle.

To think this is on the ground, goodness knows what its like in the air, or the bottom of the Med.

Press reports are blaming the Virgin pilot not parking properly at a 45 degree angle in the parking area thereby ensuring wings don't touch. However the Egyptair pilots should have seen the aircraft ahead.
