new generation of giant commercial planes and whether or not we re equipped to land them safely. the left wing of this massive air bus a-380 clipped the tail of a smaller commuter plane monday night, spinning it nearly 90 degrees. no one was hurt. the airbus is 70 feet high with an enormous i think it s 262-foot wing span. many aviation experts say there will be more accidents like the one at jfk because most u.s. airports are not equipped to safely handle these massive planes. nearly a year after the start of the oil spill in the gulf, an investigation by the associated press reveals officials along the gulf coast apparently misspent a lot of bp s money. the oil company gave hundreds of millions of dollars to local communities but in ocean springs, mississippi, bp money was used to buy tasers for reserved police officers. the sewer department and nearby gulfport bought a $300,000 vacuum truck that never sucked up oil. biloxi purchased a dozen suvs and in louisiana a parish official
