• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Severe damage on the ground to an A321 in Istanbul.

Asiana Airlines is the same outfit that landed short at San Francisco a few years ago, and they've had other mishaps as well. Apparently they're not good at checking for wing clearance, either.

Sumting Wong and his crew are at it again!
 
The plane that got it's vertical stabilizer sheared off was parked rather far back from the gate and was wildly out of position! :dizzy:

Yes, its standard practice to hold short of gate if no marshaller or the docking system isnt yet activated for the gate. It had just arrived. Fault is totally with the Asiana crew... theres a thread on Pprune.
