Delta Air Lines A350-941 collides with a Delta Connection Bombardier CRJ-900LR at Atlanta International Airport.
The accident resulted in the vertical and horizontal stabilizer of the CRJ being severed from the aircraft.
According to Delta Air Lines, the wing of an Airbus A350 taxiing out as DL295 from Atlanta to Tokyo-Haneda made contact with the tail of an Endeavor Air CRJ-900, DL5526 to LaFayette, Louisiana, on an adjacent taxiway, resulting in damage to the tail of the regional jet and the wing of the A350.
There have been no reported injuries and passengers are being transported back to the terminal where they will be booked on alternate flights.
There were 221 passengers on DL295 and 56 passengers on DL5526. At this time, no additional operational adjustments are expected.
Delta says it is cooperating with the NTSB and other authorities on the incident.
