A Southwest Boeing 737 Collided With A Jet Bridge In Boston
Stormy weather throughout the night in Massachusetts caused an incident with Boeing 737 at Boston Logan International Airport. The harsh conditions forced the Southwest Airlines aircraft into a jet bridge. Boston 25 news reports that the aircraft was sitting at a gate before being blown into the bridge by the storm. Thankfully, no passengers or workers were on the plane when the accident happened. Along with this, there were no members of airport staff on the bridge at the time.

I remember that 1, Richard. Also remember chuckling when seeing that 1 guy trying to hold the craft from going sideways. Wish someone had taken video of 1 being pushed into a jet bridge, in Edmonton, years ago. Mother nature can be mean at times.
Appears to be a little breezy up there! By reading the Title, I figured that a crew taxied into a Jet Bridge... Title a little misleading.
Yes sorry sparkie. I was going to add "from wind" but forgot.
I think it's fine..it was a 737 and it did hit a jet bridge. Heck I've seen a few WestJet 37's being blown around by the wind, along with a huge smattering of smaller jets
The tornado that hit St. Louis Lambert airport on 22 April, 2011 involved several aircraft, some that were damaged or out on the taxiways. Lambert tower knew abt the approaching tornado 30-odd minutes before it hit the airport but failed to pass along any information or warnings.
Inbound to DTW, and the plane dropped quite a bit. Yeah, I know it's hard to judge how far, but this felt like a pretty big drop. Everyone, obviously, gasped, and the engines revved and I'm thinking 'Ride 'em cowboy!'.
We land, to hear that an active tornado was just south west of the airport, and we came in on the runway that would have paralleled that cell. Nice... This was in the early 90's/late 80's.
Yea hah!!!
We took off from RDU into a hole in the clouds, and didn't see sky or ground the whole rest of the flight. It was an interesting takeoff, climbing through the hole, and into the clouds.

Was on a flight from BHM-ATL a couple of weeks after 9/11. Descending in ATL over the city, the flight dropped suddenly. Don’t know how far but felt like it could have been 2-300 feet. Everyone was still on edge & cried out fearing the worst I would have bet.
All the action is in the first two minutes.
