Did it slide or summat or is the pilot just blind?

No. He's CHINESE! It's lucky the airport didn't dig a hole there, too! Surprised there weren't 3 motorbikes and a steam roller involved. |

Re: China Airlines Cargo Plane Crashes into Baggage Carts at (ORD)
Talked to a friend on an airline site. He said they hadn't plowed the area, so the ground taxi guidelines couldn't be seen. The pilot cut the turn too wide and got the left wing over the baggage cart storage area. It got damage to both L/H engines, and the left main gear doors. That airplane will be down for a few weeks for sure.

That's going to impact the balance sheet a little bit.  |

Re: China Airlines Cargo Plane Crashes into Baggage Carts at (ORD)
then they shouldn't have been taxiing anywhere near that fast. looks like it slid to me. if the camera can clearly see the plane, then the pilots could clearly see all that crap they ran over. |
