TWO planes have collided on a tarmac, leaving one with a gaping slice directly through its tail just a week after a deadly midair crash in Washington DC that killed 67.

Shocking photos and video show the aftermath of the ground smash, which happened while one of the planes was taxiing.

On Wednesday just after 10 am, a Japan Airlines aircraft rammed the back of a Delta Airlines plane on the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport taxi lane.

No one was injured in the collision, but every passenger had to get off their plane and head back to the airport.

In a statement, the Seattle Airport described the impact on operations as “minimal” and said passengers should rebook with their airlines.

However, one flier who was actually on one of the flights still said the disturbing incident left her filled with fear.

One passenger recorded a video that showed the Japan plane’s right wing left halfway sliced through the Delta plane’s tail.

“So, we were sitting on the tarmac at SeaTac and another plane ran into us, just casually sliced into our tail,” she wrote on X.

“Very scary.”

The eerie crash came less than a week after an American Airlines plane smashed into a Black Hawk during its descent in Washington DC and plunged into the Potomac River.

The tragedy left all those involved dead, including three US Army officers, airline staff, and dozens of civilians.

It’s the deadliest US air crash since November 2001, when 260 people died after an American Airlines plane plunged into a Queens neighborhood.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said that an “elevation issue” saw the US-Army-operated craft in the passenger plane’s descent path.

The helicopter was reportedly soaring at 300 feet in the air when it was only cleared to fly a less than 200 feet elevation.

However, it’s unclear how the Black Hawk got to that position in the first place, and wasn’t stopped by a Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport air traffic controller.

Two days after that tragedy struck fear throughout the nation, another plane nosedived in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, killing seven people.

On Friday, a medical transport plane smashed into a busy neighborhood in a massive explosion that injured dozens of civilians.

Officials are still investigating how the crash happened, and just how much damage it caused.

FEAR OF FLYING

It’s normal to be afraid of flights, but recent events have left some anxious travelers unwilling to ever get back on a plane.

“This just makes me wary, especially for such a long flight,” Nadirah Reynolds told USA Today.

“I don’t know if I trust being in the air for that long and going that sort of distance.”
