The execution, however, was definitely lacking when a Japan Airlines Boeing 787 Dreamliner taxied toward the Tampa International Airport terminal on Thursday evening.
Two airport fire trucks were stationed on each side of the plane. Firefighters used cannons to shoot water into the air, creating a liquid archway that the aircraft taxied through. It's a ceremony TIA and other airports use to honor special airplanes and special occasions.
This time, however, the result was not so honorable: The plane's right wing tip smacked one of the water cannons.
