Default Not just Alaska: "Ramp rash" leaves mark for other airlines

Quote:
Airline accidents on the ground are so common that aviation experts have a term for them: "ramp rash." It's hard to quantify them because reporting requirements are vague, but a panel of safety experts who studied the problem in 2004 estimated ground accidents cost the world's airlines $5 billion a year.
