Sept 10 (Reuters) - Delta Air Lines ( DAL ) said Tuesday
the wing of one of its planes struck a regional jet while
taxiing for departure at Atlanta airport, damaging both
aircraft.
The Federal Aviation Administration said it will
investigate.
The airline said the wing of a Delta Airbus A350 that was
set to depart for Tokyo-Haneda made contact with the tail of an
Endeavor Air CRJ-900 that was scheduled to department for
LaFayette, Louisiana, resulting in damage to the tail of the
regional jet and the wing of the A350. Endeavor is a wholly
owned Delta subsidiary. Delta said there were reported injuries.
