....the Bombardier CRJ-700 regional jet.

Call this one very pricey "fender bender" between two jets in New York's famed JFK Airport last night. The two jets involved were an Airbus A380 (Air France) and one of those fancy Bombardier CRJ700 regional jets.

Two amazing videos have emerge, one is the two planes knocking into each other, and the other is the audio from one of the pilots involved.

The two jets were towed away and are now being inspected to determine the extent of their damage. Air France reported that 485 passengers and 25 crew members were aboard the Paris-bound Flight 7 and the other jet was a Comair flight that had 62 passengers and four crew members. NO ONE WAS injured. The two videos on this blog post show the planes colliding (above), and below, is the audio from the pilot involved and his reaction to the crash.

Gotta love You Tube.

Below:

Air Traffic Control (ATC) Audio - Air France Flight 7 F-HPJD bound for Paris. The Airbus A380 super jumbo jet clipped the tail of a Delta CRJ700 (Comair Flight 6293) while taxiing at JFK (New York) International Airport. Go to :34 seconds into this clip, and this is where the pilot tells the Control tower: "We just been hit."

Meet Randy Economy

You may know me from my role as the Senior Advisor and Official Media Spokesman for the Recall Gavin Newsom campaign that established a worldwide blitz of interviews. I conducted more than 2,200 media interviews on behalf of “The People’s Recall” during a 10-month period from November 2020 to September 2021. The iconic magazine Mother Jones in a dramatic feature article called me “A ‘Superhero Pirate’ Radio Host, (and) Gavin Newsom’s Strangest—and Most Dangerous—Threat. Meet Randy Economy, the man behind the effort to recall California’s governor.” I appeared on more than 330 media outlets around the world in my capacity with RecallGavin2020. Fox News, CNN, MSNBC, Newsmax, NBC Nightly News, ABC News, as well as the Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, Politico, and dozens of other media outlets aired featured reports on my work on behalf of “The People’s Recall.” I am and will always consider myself to be a journalist. Sometimes I think I bleed ink. My talents as an Investigative Journalists in California earned me FIVE top awards from the prestigious Los Angeles Press Club in 2013, 2014, and 2016. I am tenacious. My reporting over the years has led to the prosecution of several elected officials in California. While working for a tiny community newspaper in Southeast Los Angeles County, I worked doggedly to expose the biggest public corruption case in Los Angeles County history when I unearthed a massive pay to play scheme inside the Assessor’s Office that led to the arrest of then Assessor John R. Noguez and four others. However, politics has been in my DNA since I was a child. I have worked on more than 300 political campaigns as a consultant and advisor since 1982 for candidates from all sides of the political spectrum including Democrats and Republicans, and even Libertarians. I am also a small business owner, serving as the President and CEO of Hot Water Studio & Production, LLC. My company works with media outlets across the state, nation, and world exposing public corruption via several new media platforms. I have also overcome personal challenges. I am legally blind with zero vision in my right eye and only 40 percent vision remaining in my left eye. I sometimes wear an eyepatch due to my failed vision. (Hence the nickname of “America’s Political Pirate.”
