   Korean 777 hits Icelandic 757 at Heathro

   Two planes, from airlines Icelandair and Korean Air, collided at Heathrow   
   airport on Wednesday evening. A spokesman for London's airport said there was   
   a "minor collision" with no injuries, the BBC and The Guardian report.   
       
   Images on social media show that emergency services rushed to the scene after   
   the collision that allegedly occurred on the runway. Inside the Korean Air   
   plane was a journalist from The Guardian, who writes that a passenger saw the   
   left wing of the plane hit the tail of the Icelandair plane. That would have   
   happened while taxiing.   
       
   Footage shows damage to the tail of the Icelandair plane. Due to the incident,   
   passengers would have to deal with delayed flights.   
       
   The aircraft concerned are a Boeing 777-300 (registration: HL7782) of Korean   
   Air and a Boeing 757-200 (registration: TF-FIK) of Icelandair.   
       
   Editor's note:   
       
   There are reasons why I will never board a Korean Airlines airliner ...
