15/08/2006 | Qantas plane in cargo collision

Almost 300 passengers were evacuated from a Qantas jumbo jet today when it collided with a cargo loader at Los Angeles International Airport. Qantas flight QF 11 landed at LAX from Sydney just after 11am local time (4am AEST) and was headed to its gate on a south-side taxiway when the incident occurred, airport public relations director Nancy Castles said. The 288 passengers and 19 crew, as well as the driver of the cargo loading vehicle, suffered no injuries, Ms Castles said. Passengers and crew on the Boeing 747-400 used stairs to disembark the aircraft and were taken by bus to the terminal. Engine damaged Luggage was then unloaded before the aircraft, which sustained engine damage, was towed to the airline's maintenance hangar. Ms Castles was unable to say what caused the accident, but said all aircraft had priority on taxiways. "The plane was moving on its assigned taxiway and then the cargo loading equipment crossed the taxiway," Ms Castles said. "Our policy is that moving aircraft has the right of way." A Qantas spokesman said its engineers were inspecting the aircraft. He confirmed the airline would investigate the cause of the accident. The US National Transport Safety Board would also investigate the incident, Ms Castles said http://www.theage.com.au/news/world/passengers-evacuate-qantas-flight/2006/08/15/1155407775853.html />
