It really feels like this is happening every other week at this point, maybe more.

The Denver-bound Flight 1871 struck another of the airline's fleet at around 9.10pm on Monday, according to the Federal Aviation Administration. The plane hit the tail of Boston-bound Flight 796, which was parked while preparing for takeoff. After the aircraft was towed back to its gate, 'passengers on both planes deplaned normally,' United Airlines said in a statement. 'We arranged for different aircraft to take our customers to their destinations,' the airline added.
