    if two planes get close enough to hit each other there is something wrong with the air control station, someone was not performing there job well.

    The Air France Airbus 380 hit the smaller plane while taxiing to the runway for takeoff. The smaller plane then caught on fire. Emergency crews eventually put the fire out.The passangers remained calm as they were alerted to what happened. After a few hours the plane was evacuated and everyone was safe. Their luggage was also ok. This happened because the smaller plane was landing when the other was getting ready for take off. Everyone was safe.

    I think that if your trained to fly then you should have to watch where your going just like in a car unless you cant see where your going or in this case flying.

    I agree. It takes a lot more than just being awake to control an airport. Someone wasnt doing their job.

    Someone should be fired.

    I do not understand how this happened. How could someone at the airport let the planes in the same area at the same time!

    The people flying this plane are not to blame, the people in the control towers should be able to maintain control of these kind of things. I wouldn't be too happy about this because of somebody else being careless.
