Two United Airlines planes collided at San Francisco International Airport on Labor Day. The incident occurred just after 9 p.m., when Flight UA1871, which was heading to Denver, Colorado, was pulling away from the gate. It collided with Boston-bound Flight UA796, which was at another gate boarding passengers at the time.
The Federal Aviation Administration said that Flight UA1871 was towed back to the gate, where passengers were deplaned without incident.
Luckily, none of the passengers on either flight were injured…
