UA and Austrian flights AND UA and LH flights clip wings at EWR [Oct 11 & 12, 2016]
 
http://nypost.com/2016/10/12/planes-...-straight-day/


United Airlines Flight 31 — a Boeing 767 — clipped the right wing of Austrian Airlines Flight 90, also a Boeing 767, Wednesday evening around 4:30pm, as it pushed back out of the gate at Terminal B. The Austrian flight was parked at Terminal B when the collision occurred.
And


At approximately 5:20pm Tuesday evening, a United 88 Boeing 777 clipped wings with a Lufthansa Airbus A340.

So the wing walkers I witnessed on a sunny day lasr week at an empty RNO should clearly be deployed to EWR.

Oy. I wonder if this has any bearing on my delayed AA flight ORD-DEN. Plane is coming from EWR and currently running about 55 minutes late.
