After an uneventful flight from the Ukraine, the aircraft landed on Runway 28 at London Manston Airport and was directed to backtrack and exit the runway onto Taxiway Charlie. As the aircraft taxied along Charlie, the commander displaced the aircraft slightly to the right of the taxiway centreline to avoid a building on the left. Having passed the building, the aircraft proceeded to track at a shallow angle across to the left of the taxiway centreline to clear a parked DC-8 on the right.
The flight crew then transmitted MARSHALLER IN SIGHT and the commander told the first officer to watch the right. As the aircraft passed the DC-8, ATC transmitted IT LOOKS LIKE YOUR RIGHT WING HAS CAUGHT THE DC-8 and the aircraft stopped. Shortly afterwards the crew continued taxiing, following the marshallers direction, onto their allocated parking bay where the aircraft was shut down. Subsequent inspection revealed damage to the fairing on the Antonovs
right wing and a broken left hand direct vision (DV) window on the DC-8. The commander reported that his attention was divided between the marshaller, the first officer and keeping the aircraft on the edge of the taxiway.
