Northwest planes collide at Minneapolis May 11
A Northwest DC9 that had just landed at Minneapolis inbound from Columbus OH and an Airbus A320 that was pushing from its gate bound for San Antonio, collided at
MSP Airport around 7:30pm last night. The DC9 had reported a hydraulic problem and apparently lost its steering as it was taxiing towards its gate as the A320 was being pushed back from its gate. Passengers on both aircraft were evacuated ; escape slides were used on the Airbus.
