Two easyJet planes ‘clipped wings’ at Manchester Airport, tearing one of the flight’s wings off.
The planes collided just after 6.30am, with flights briefly suspended as engineers carried out safety checks.
A passenger shared photographs of one of the damaged aircraft, showing the tip of the wing twisted.
Another image appeared to show half the wing tip missing of the plane, which data from the monitoring website FlightRadar24 suggests it was bound for Gibraltar.
