Hey guys

Just seen this article pop up. Pretty amazing , seems to be a pretty careless mistake at the surface on somebody's part.. Could be more to it obviously!

If they had collision detection turned off it would have sailed right through no probs - works for me :-)

LOL .. nice Was that video frame-rate screwed up or was the A380 actually doing what looked like 50-kts along the taxiway.
They couldnt have stopped that thing if they tried, looks like they just didnt bother

Wouldn't it be awesome to have proper collision physics (or at least a semblance of it) in Flight! (i.e. hit something with your wing and it spins you around)

HAHA. You sir, just made my day.
That A380 made the other plane look like a toy.

Surprised this hasn't been posted yet.
Would have given the pax and crew on the CRJ a great fright... Tail must be stong too.
