NEWARK, N.J. - A plane leaving a terminal at a major New York-area airport clipped wings with another plane being towed to a hangar for service on a taxiway Tuesday evening, the head of the air traffic controller's union said.
The incident at Newark Liberty International Airport comes as federal officials examine how a jetliner carrying more than 160 people landed on a taxiway instead of an adjacent runway at the same airport Saturday night.
In the Tuesday accident, an outbound Lufthansa Boeing 747 clipped the right wing of a Continental Boeing 757, said Russ Halleran, president of the National Air Traffic Controllers Association local at the airport
