The incident occurred when the wing of a Delta Air Lines plane struck the tail of a regional jet during taxiing, leading to significant damage.
Despite the serious impact, Delta confirmed there were no injuries among the 221 passengers on the A350 or the 56 passengers on the CRJ-900.
FAA Administrator Mike Whitaker highlighted new technologies designed to enhance situational awareness among air traffic controllers, acknowledging the need for continual improvement.
The NTSB's increasing concern over US aviation safety has prompted calls for enhanced technology to prevent such collisions and improve operational oversight.
