A Delta jet clipped a smaller plane on a taxiway at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport on Tuesday morning, tearing the tail off the smaller plane, officials said.

Delta Air Lines Flight 295, which was en route to Tokyo, was taxiing for takeoff when its wingtip hit the tail of Endeavor Air Flight 5526, which was headed to Louisiana, knocking the Endeavor plane’s tail off, according to the Federal Aviation Administration and Delta.

    Slap some speed tape on there and you’re good to go.

      Was it a Boeing? Just take a bit of tape from the door.

        Nope, one was an Embraer and the other looks like an Airbus

        Edit: Looks like the smaller one was a Bombardier CRJ900 and the bigger one was an Airbus A350
