You have to feel for these smaller carriers when things like this happen. Good that they found some alternate aircraft to cover their flights. Main cause? Lack of concentration and attention by the tug crew.
I wouldn't be too quick to point the blame at the tug crew, there could be other factors, like did they have wing walkers. But, it could have been them
@@MarkUKInsects agreed.
@@MarkUKInsects agreed, though I was trying to indicate the entire team responsible for the tug operation, thus crew. Apparently, I miscommunicated that. 👍
@@MarkUKInsects We dont do Wing walking in Copenhagen Airport.
@@commerce-usa That's fair. It is a team, or should be.
What a shame for this splendid, nearly new, red A-330! Somebody was obviously not paying proper attention to the task in hand. Such an unnecessary accident and headache for the airline. 🛩
Correction. Air Greenland former Airbus was the A330~200 and not the A330~300 🙂. Thanks for your channel 👍
Inattentive workers is the main cause. Inattentive or distracted.
Perhaps worker was watching Simple Flying videos on his phone?
It's not like you can miss a big red plane!!
But I must say, that aircraft is hella beautiful
What a beautiful aircraft. Hope it's mended and back in service soon.
The simple answer is probably 'human error.
As to why we are hearing about so many ground incidents, that probably deserves a video or two!
As a ramp agent, the lack of care and attention is frightening
It’s finally back
Beautiful aircraft I want to fly in a A330 neo
I saw that aircraft in josh cahill's channel when it was delivered to air greenland
The A 330-800 is nice a looking plane.
Much of the video was taken before the aircraft was delivered. The French test registration is visible on a white panel on the rear fuselage.
As concerning Ground Operations, Aircraft Handling, Ramp, these are Very Serious and Precise Operations Concerning the Movement and Ground Traffic of Aircrafts which requires Precision Act and alot of Concentration to avoid this kind of Minor Incidents, They are only minor Incidents like this but major incidents are rare, Although it's just a Minor Incident that will be easily fixed.
The lack of tugcrew and ATC is the Main cause of collisions
Can somebody tell me that is the music in the background?
Seems like a lot of people commenting who likely have never towed an airplane, especially to remote parking areas. From my 20 years of doing that, I can tell you remote parking or hangar areas tend to be underlit, often in the case of remote parking wedged into an area unusable for anything else. The person operating the tow unit has limited visibility of the wing on the side opposite of his seat,since the body of the plane blocks the view. The tow operator may be scanning for obstructions, but the focus is largely on what is in front of the tow path, including moving equipment or other aircraft, if the hangar doors are correctly opened, etc.
Others assume there even was a J line painted that the driver was on and following, but that is not a given. Was the SAS plane even parked correctly? Was the nose wheel on the stop line for the type of aircraft parked there, or was it stopped on a different type of aircraft's stop, which might have put the aircraft outside the containment envelope?
Until ALL the facts are known, people should not be so quick to pass judgement. Especially if you have never done the job, and have no clue how many risk factors have to be computed throughout any repositioning.
If you would like to get a grasp of the complexities,pull up the FLL airfield, and look at the space in front of the fire station where up to 6 planes can be wedged in. All have to be pushed in tail first, avoiding other aircraft parked behind,to the left, to the right, with no guide lines outside the parking area. Oh yeah, that is blacktop, so there are times when it is raining it is impossible to see any markings there . At least it is only rainy in Florida about 7 months out of the year.
are all aircraft towers arrogant like yourself then?
Poor Ant, you confuse experience for arrogance. I am sure one day too you will be proficient at something other than troll, and will understand.
Wasn’t a A330-800 Neo from Kuwait Airways damaged because of a bird strike.
They are currently using an air belgium a330-900 on this route.
And a jet smart 737-800 he said that in the video
Two aircraft coming in contact with each other.
I just found out that it’s flying from KEF-THU 😮
Well now it definitely needs maintenance
Wing walkers....where were they?
"Ground control to major Tom..."
SF asks. What do You see as the main reason of ground collissions. One word. BEER.
This was just newly delivered
a330neo are broken again damaged in door
Isn't this the plane (A330-800) no one will buy? Love the livery but man, this plane is just not happening.
Fatigue and distractions are tops of the main causes... having worked for UNITED AIRLINES on the ramp IAH Houston, TX.
Working OT back to back and too much traffic to watch out for.
to be honest ,the aircraft is big for that airport i think
Not really. It used to have the A380 before Covid.
Main cause, lack of concentration. They person operating the tug was probably on his phone.
Amazed at the stupidity of some airport employees who think they are dealing with tins of beans.
Not only ground crews but pilots who have run together.
This shows how incompetent griund staff are hope everyone involved gets fired and lose theirs jobs and never wotk in aviation everyone again plus hope they hire more competent people as ground staff are dangerous
like you would know anything
@@ChiefUno1 exactly
Poor Jamie, shows how incompetent some posters can be. It is ground, not griund, their not theirs, work not wotk, and I believe you were trying to say ever when you fumbled out everyone. Why in the world do you think ground staff are dangerous? Oh, and when you get to 3rd year English you will be amazed when they teach you what a period is, and how to use it!!
Perhaps,until then, you ought to follow your own vitriol and " never type in forums everyone(sp) again"
Taxiing too fast..
Quickest solution to fix 👎
Fix it to spec properly not quick fix would never fly an airline that does that
That would be classified as a mid-.ground collision.
someone is getting the sack
