what a shame, brand new
misfired out of the chocks and went into a barrier...
that'll be a big cost for an already troubled Airbus

I think they need to use a little more safety than just chocks to hold a jet back. Why weren't the brakes applied also just in case it jumped the chocks like it did? That's a very stupid way to ruin a brand new A340.

Something went terribly wrong and people were injured. It will be interesting to see what the cause was.

Another instance where pilot interface with software causes an accident.
Will Airbus never learn?

I heard about it and saw a small picture but man it looks much worse in that picture. Thanks. Damm, and it was brand new. Wow didn't realize people were hurt.
