  1. It sure need a lot of trainings more than they need !!!!,🔴🤫🫢

  2. Yeaaah, if it was just the weather radar and radome it would just need to be replaced, but that denting is on a pressure bulkhead. That is going to take a lot more to fix.

  3. There are speed limit guidelines! And yielding the right-of-way!

  4. Let me guess:

    The bus company recently re-affirmed their commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, along with hiring the handicapped, etc?

  5. That aircraft will need rhinoplasty

  6. Muslim ke maro madher chodo ko

  7. Why is the bus on the taxiway?

  8. They didn't mention anything about the driver.

  9. I used to work for the BUS company
    They hired me without a class B , they trained me to learn how to drive a Bus in 2 weeks , and Boom. I was driving a Bus around airplanes with no experience and no Class B license. I was fired, I had a coalition with an AA employee. They only pay $15/$18 an hour and never have enough employees. NO ONE HAS EXPERIENCE 😂

  10. As someone who flies out and in from ORD every week, the majority of those bus drivers are a lump of meat with enough brain cells to just comprehend start, stop, left and right.

  11. How do you think ? Injury yes n your home it's serious

  12. How do you think ? Injury yes n your home it's serious

  13. Was this on the taxiway or the ramp? If the bus was on the taxiway, they should have been talking to the tower. If it was on the ramp it's 100% the bus driver's fault.

  14. GPS: Keep going straight.
    Driver: I love GPS! I don't even have to look out the window anymore!

  15. It was an employee bus not a passenger bus

  16. "Minimal damage done" that is going to cost millions to repair. The radar is destroyed and part of the fuselage on the port side will probably need to be re-skinned. But sure let's call it "Minimal damage".

  17. Many of the big airports now have loads of buses to take passengers to planes when there is not enough flight gates…….I was waiting for this to happen……..I can think of a better design than this on the tarmac that wouldn't cost extra money. Authorities really need to look at better designs of airports.

  18. Many of those drivers have no respect for aircraft. Atlanta, Miami, Dallas Fort Worth, etc. Very seldom do they get punished.

  19. A lot going on at Chicago O’hare🍷

  20. Were the bus driver or pilot hired based on affirmative action and diversity instead of the best quaified.

  21. Donate to CLAIM A DEVIL CUP. WITH NONE OTHER THAN THE FACE OF THE ANTICHRIST!!!!
