Here's an accident report for those curious - https://asn.flightsafety.org/wikibase/318777

tl;dr - Air traffic controller had plane go down a taxiway that had a light pole at 28m from centerline. The 777's wingspan from centerline is 32.4m

The right-hand wing leading edge suffered a serious dent.

That's a bit of an understatement, going by the photo.

Weird things in this photo...

  • The pole didn't break away from the base
  • The wing didn't cripple whatever it hit
  • The wing was visibly damaged
  • Plane not Airbus
