An Air India aeroplane was damaged after it bumped into a JetBlue aircraft in what is seen as a major mishap at New York's Kennedy Airport. The accident is the aviation equivalent of a fender-bender,except that it could have caused a major tragedy. Nobody was reported injured in the accident,which happened at around 6:15 a.m. Saturday. A JetBlue spokesman says a plane carrying around 150 passengers bound for West Palm Beach,Florida,had become temporarily disabled due to a problem with its tow bar and was sitting near a gate when it was bumped by an Air India aircraft. The JetBlue plane suffered some damage to its rudder. Airline spokesman Alex Headrick says the passengers were loaded on to another plane. The departure was delayed at least 3 { hours. Messages left for Air India officials in New York weren't immediately returned.
