Exactly one week after the horrific mid-air plane crash over the Potomac River, a Japan Airlines jet collided with the rear end of a Delta passenger plane.
At around 10:17am on February 5, 2025, the taxing Japan Airlines plane crashed right into the tail of an already parked Delta plane at the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. Both vehicles were filled with passengers.
Although onlookers located on the concourse and maintenance hangars were terrified to see the wing collide with the tail, no injuries have been reported, and the impacts to airport operations were minimal.
