So much work on this one and so many hours non-stop to have this done by today. Be advised, animations may not be correct + audio is not in real time. Anyway, I hope you find it useful to visualize the situation. From these lines, KUDOS to the air traffic controllers and the emergency services for their job. No delays were applied except for both affected aircraft and the A318 and B757 behind who had to wait for the planes to clear the area and taxi for their takeoff.

If you're going to colide with another airplane, there is no place better to do so as on the ground.
-
It always makes me happy to see pilots and ATC talking calmly to figure out a solution when the average car driver would be yelling and pointing fingers.
-
Now the EgyptAir has to pull to the side to exchange insurance papers so they can be off on their way.
-
ATC: There's a 757 behind you. Speedbird: Very well. Classic British response.
-
After the desperate hour-long struggle of the captain, Speedbird 2 being able to taxi to 31L via Kilo was the happy ending I so desperately needed.
-
"Tower... I think the Egyptair hit our left wing!" "Alright"
-
I'm always amazed with ATC gives about 17 instructions in one giant sentence to a pilot. How can you remember all that? I was always terrified flying into large airports for exactly that reason.
-
4:32 'Ladies and Gentlemen..." "this is your captain speaking..." "if you look outside the left hand side... You will see what happens when two wings touch...." " Your flight has now been cancelled." "Thank you for flying with....."
-
Lol That Speedbird flight just wanted to get the hell outta there.
-
Imagine the nightmare this little incident caused for the passengers and airlines. Especially because they are away from their home base and no extra airplanes.
-
The only thing I've learned from this channel is never fly to Kennedy
-
The virgin "I suck at parallel parking" vs the Chad "Lol, what side view mirrors"
-
Interesting how controller relied on car 99. She was the only one that was clear, concise and seemed to have a clue
-
My favourite thing in these clips is hearing British pilots say ‘understood’. It just sounds so good in our accent 👌
-
It's really impressive how well coordinated and efficient the controllers are with the ground crew and the airliners.
-
nice! one small remark: if preferred when the planes had the same color as the captions. much clearer that way!
-
That controller seemed like he was overworked, he kept having to correct himself, and sounded like he was exhausted.
-
When Kennedy Steve retied...KJFK Ground is messed...
-
Car 94 was obviously being driven by the new guy :D
