According to the Northern Airport Authority, at 2:00 p.m. on June 27, Boeing aircraft numbered VN-A863 rolled onto the runway to prepare for takeoff to Ho Chi Minh City. When reaching the intersection of taxiways S3 and S, the Boeing collided with the tail of Airbus aircraft numbered VN-A338 waiting to take off to Dien Bien.
As a result, the Boeing suffered damage to the right wing tip, and the Airbus suffered a torn vertical wing. There were some debris from both vehicles at the scene.
The two planes had to stop operations for technical inspection. At the time of the collision, there was no rain in the Noi Bai area and the light ensured good visibility.
The flight to Dien Bien had 127 passengers, the flight to Ho Chi Minh City had 259 people. All passengers and luggage were brought back to Terminal T1. Vietnam Airlines arranged for passengers to transfer to an alternative flight.
Authorities inspected the scene, pulled the two aircraft to a safe parking position, cleared and cleaned taxiways S and S3. Airport operations continued as normal.
The leaders of the Civil Aviation Authority of Vietnam said they are coordinating with relevant parties to assess and verify the cause of the incident. Initial findings show that the Airbus preparing to depart for Dien Bien did not park at the correct waiting stop on taxiway S3.
