Terrifying reports have confirmed how two planes ended up colliding before takeoff, just weeks after a similar incident arose on a plane carrying members of Congress.

The incident took place when a United Airlines flight was pushing back from its gate and struck another plane.

As the United Airlines Flight 863 was leaving the gate, its right wingtip hit the left wingtip of the United Airlines Flight 877.

None of the 202 passengers and 16 crew members aboard flight 863 sustained injuries, and the 306 passengers and 16 crew members aboard flight 877.

The accident took place just after midnight on Monday at the San Francisco Airport. As per the Air Traffic Control recording that was shared, the ramp controller could be heard explaining how the 863 pilot and that plane are pushing pretty deep and to ensure that this flight is watching.

No injuries arose, and both passengers on both planes deplaned normally as per a recent update by the United Airlines spokesperson during their statement.

‘We are working with our customers to rebook them on their flights’- the message went on to read. Flight 863 was headed for the Australian capital city of Sydney when it clipped Flight 877, which was on its way to Hong Kong.
