"The wing of a Northwest Airlines DC-9 was hit during the boarding process" (I'll presume they mean the boarding process of the plane, not the boarding process of the bus.)
"Conway said there are a lot of vehicles outside the terminal, but the aircraft always has the right of way."
Right of way? It wasn't moving!
How do you hit a plane. It's a plane. Did it jump out in front of the bus?!?
