Plane Carrying Senator Obama Hits Parked Plane on Runway
January 12th, 2008
According to ABC News the plane carrying Senator Barack Obama crashed into another parked plane while taxiing at Midway Airport in Chicago.
At 2:45 a.m. Central Time, the Gulfstream 2 plane that carried Obama, nine other passengers and two crew members struck a parked Cessna 208 general aviation plane, which can carry 10 to 12 passengers.
There was minor damage to the wings of both aircraft, although no one on either of the planes was injured.
Inside Obama’s plane, the hit was so small that no one realized they had clipped the other plane’s wing until someone on the plane, looking out the window, noticed the swipe.
