A plane collides with a truck and overturns it on the airport runway.

On a busy Thursday morning at Miami International Airport, a United Airlines plane had a minor collision with a box truck. The impact caused the truck to flip over, leaving it lying on its side next to the commercial jetliner. CCTV footage captured the unusual crash, showing the truck tipped over and the plane's wing appearing dented and damaged.

According to the airline, the incident occurred while the Boeing 737-900 was being towed to a gate and made contact with a catering vendor vehicle. Thankfully, no one was injured in the incident. The truck driver was able to safely exit the vehicle, and there were no passengers aboard the plane at the time.

Following the collision, United's maintenance team is conducting an inspection of the aircraft. This incident comes just a few months after a similar one at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, where a Delta Air Lines plane hit another plane's wingtip, causing its tail to rip off.

A spokesperson for United Airlines confirmed that there were no passengers aboard the aircraft during the Miami incident. However, just two days prior, a dead body was found in the wheel well of a United Flight 202 that had landed at Kahlului Airport in Maui. The victim's presence in the wheel well of the Boeing 787-10, which had arrived from Chicago on Christmas Eve, remains a mystery.

These incidents have raised concerns among aviation enthusiasts, especially since they occurred during one of the busiest weeks for travel. Some have taken to social media to discuss the Miami crash, with one user noting the strength of the plane's wing for not breaking off completely. Another commented on the trend of accidents in the aviation industry.

Overall, it seems that the Miami incident was a minor one, with no major injuries reported. Nevertheless, it serves as a reminder of the potential dangers of air travel and the importance of safety measures in the aviation industry.
