Flight attendant injured after 2 Delta regional jets collide on taxiway at LaGuardia
From ABC "Their right wing clipped our nose and the cockpit we have damage to our windscreen and ... some of our screens in here," a pilot can be heard saying on the Air Traffic Control audio.
One crew apparently did not hear controllers tell them to hold short of the taxiway. The other plane had clearance. Late at night. Fatigue maybe a factor? LGA is one busy airport. And the best alternative, Newark, has been a mess due to intermittent telemetry outages - probably operating at reduced capacity.
