A plane taxiing for departure at Chicago O'Hare International Airport clipped another aircraft on Sunday evening, according to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). Fortunately, no injuries were reported in the incident involving two Boeing-designed planes. The FAA has stated that it will conduct an investigation into the collision.

The incident occurred when the left wing tip of All Nippon Airways' Flight 11, a Boeing 777, struck the rear of Delta Air Lines' Flight 2122, a Boeing 717, at approximately 6:30 p.m. Central Time on Sunday.

This incident comes at a time when American aircraft manufacturer Boeing is already facing increased scrutiny due to a series of mechanical failures. Recently, their Boeing 737 Max 9 model was grounded after an emergency exit door malfunctioned, leading to an emergency landing. While it is unclear at this time what caused the collision at O'Hare, there has been no indication of a manufacturing flaw related to the incident.

Boeing representatives declined to comment on the collision and instead referred inquiries to the respective airlines involved as well as the FAA. Delta Airlines spokesperson Emma Johnson confirmed that the incident occurred while the All Nippon Airways aircraft was parking at a gate after arriving from Detroit. She also stated that passengers disembarked normally, and Delta's maintenance technicians are currently evaluating the Delta aircraft.

All Nippon Airways, on the other hand, was unable to provide any immediate information regarding the collision. The airline's flight status search indicated that Flight 11, bound for Tokyo, was canceled due to an "aircraft inspection."

As of now, the Chicago Department of Aviation has not responded to requests for comment on the incident. The FAA's investigation will seek to determine the cause and any contributing factors to prevent such incidents in the future.

It is essential to note that no injuries were reported, and both planes involved were of Boeing design. The investigation will shed light on the circumstances surrounding the collision and ensure the safety and security of operations at Chicago O'Hare International Airport.
