What happened
On the early morning of 7 October 2014, two Boeing 737-8AS aircraft, EI-EMH and EI-EKK, were involved in a ground collision at Dublin Airport. At the time of the incident, the airport was conducting dual runway operations.
EI-EKK was stationary on LINK 2, positioned at the entrance to taxiway F1, as part of a queue awaiting departure from runway 28. Meanwhile, EI-EKK was taxiing via the Foxtrot taxiways toward runway 34. As the pilot of EI-EMH executed a right turn onto LINK 2, the tip of the aircraft's port-side winglet struck the starboard elevator of the stationary EI-EKK.
The impact caused substantial damage to the winglet of EI-EMH and the elevator of EI-EKK. Following the contact, the crew of EI-EMH immediately stopped the aircraft and notified air traffic control of the collision. There were no injuries to the passengers or crew on either aircraft.
