The damage caused to two aircraft when they collided at a Brazilian airport has been captured on video.

The frightening incident occurred when a Gol Airlines plane, full of passengers, was on the runway at Congonhas Airport in São Paulo, waiting to depart, while a LATAM Airlines plane, also with passengers, had just landed from Rio de Janeiro. The two planes collided.

The responsible airport company, Aena, stated that the incident was caused by a mechanical failure in the pushback equipment connected to the Gol Airlines aircraft.

Gol Airlines mentioned in a statement to the Brazilian news agency G1 that the wing of the LATAM Airlines Airbus A319 struck the tail of the Boeing 737, leaving a large hole in the fuselage.

“The customers disembarked safely and were placed on another aircraft to continue their journey,” the airline stated.

“All passengers and crew disembarked normally and with complete safety,” LATAM Airlines mentioned in its own statement. “The company clarifies that the aircraft was removed for maintenance and that it is investigating the incident.”
