Friend of mine was on that aircraft that got clipped on Sunday.

I was in a "plane crash" yesterday on my way to New York.... we were 20 feet from the runway, 2nd for takeoff...and we were hit by another plane... we were parked, they were taxi-ing... shook the plane and they got hooked together by the wings... wasn't scary, except that no one knew what had happened until I told the flight attendant that we were "crossing wings" with another plane. Guess "plane crash" is something I can check off my list!!

... and this is a PERFECT example of why when two planes collide BOTH should go down.
