Airplane tears off winglet on jet bridge

In article , says... The Greeks clearly altered the position of the jetbridge in retaliation for Jenifer Lopez's concert in Turkish Cypress. Since this is a Turkish airline, I think we can safely assume that the pilots messed up. Indeed, if the jet bridge was not incorrectly positioned, there aren't too many other possibilities. I'm surprised that passengers were willing to wait for a later flight on the same carrier, instead of simply switching airlines. Some may be Turkish, and feel theirs are the best pilots. Others may simply not share your strong cultural and racial prejudices. It may be different in France, but most places I've been to, including Italy, have ground personnel directing the pilots until the airplane is on a taxi way and away from that kind of interference. Most often there's a push back from the gate, isn't there? The judge and jury is probably still out, except here. |
