When will we learn. We need to put some safety features in effect as planes hitting each other is getting more regular. We either need cameras in the wing tips or wing walkers till the planes get to the runway. Planes are getting bigger and taxiways and ramps are getting smaller!!!
Boing is working on a warning system against collision while rolling on taxi.
yikes..unfortunately as the planes get bigger,they also get wider and the rampers do not follow an aircraft much past the initial pushback..if the technology is there, why not have cameras on wingtips???
