minor crash???? - Capt. Bailey - 16-07-2005
Hi,
ATC taxied another aircraft right up to my nose and everybody stopped! Nobody could move. So, I tried to taxi around the other plane. Pilot error
caused my wingtip to touch the other aircraft's wingtip during taxi. Total speed was 6 mph. The incident KILLED 156 people!!!!! HOW can this be? From
touching a wingtip????? We're talking wingTIP here, NOT the entire wing. The incident was my fault but, I can't see 156 people killed because of
something like this.

that's strange...
did you banked during the crash ? or pitched ?
the kill count take in acount the aircraft attitude and speed at the time of crash.
