Authorities are investigating after a United Airlines plane clipped the tail of a parked Delta passenger jet at Logan Airport in Boston on Friday.
The low-speed collision, captured on video by a passenger, occurred as the United Airlines Flight 369 was preparing to take-off for Newark Airport at about 7.20pm.
The FAA said the Boeing 737's left wingtip came into contact with the tail of Delta Air Lines Flight 1657, an Airbus A321.
No injuries were reported, and 128 passengers aboard the United flight had to disembark and were booked on to other flights.
Kathleen Dunn, a passenger on a separate flight, posted footage of the incident to Twitter and said her flight was delayed from landing for 40 minutes.
She said fire police and EMTs swarmed the airport after the collision.
In a statement to NBC 10, United Airlines said: "On Friday evening, the winglet of a United aircraft clipped the tail of another aircraft at Boston Logan International Airport. Customers on the United aircraft deplaned normally at the gate, and we will rebook them onto other flights."
Delta Airlines also issued a statement apologising to affected customers.
"While there are no reported injuries to our customers or crew on Delta flight 1657, the aircraft came into contact with another aircraft while awaiting takeoff clearance on the Logan airfield. Delta teams are working to get customers to their final destinations tonight, and we apologise for the delay."
In March, a similar incident occurred when two planes preparing to take off from Logan Airport clipped wings as one pulled away from the gate.
The FAA did not immediately respond to a request for further information.
In a separate incident, New England Patriots cornerback Jack Jones was arrested with two loaded guns in his carry-on luggage at Logan Airport on Friday.
