Narrative:The right winglet of a taxiing Boeing 747-433BCF, B-2477, contacted the rudder of a stationary Embraer ERJ-190, N184JB, at New York-John F. Kennedy International Airport, NY (JFK). The all-cargo B-747 was operating as Air China flight 1065 from Anchorage International Airport (ANC), Alaska, and the ERJ-190 was operating as JetBlue flight 5104, a non-revenue positioning flight from Nashville International Airport (BNA), Tennessee.
The ERJ-190 was substantially damaged, and the B-747 received minor damage. No persons on the airplanes or on the ground were injured. Night instrument meteorological conditions prevailed at the time of the accident.
Probable Cause: The infringement of the parked EMB-190 into the airport movement area, and the B-747 crew's failure to maintain separation between the airplanes in conditions of darkness. Contributing to the accident was the contaminated ramp, which obscured airport markings.
