- Date: November 26, 1994
- Aircraft: Boeing 737-200
- Location: Houston-George Bush-Intercontinental, Texas, United States
- Fatalities: 0
- Phase of flight: Taxi
- Cause: Maintenance personnel failed to follow the taxi checklist, so the hydraulic pumps were not turned on, leading to the wing-to-wing collision during the repositioning taxi.
A Continental Boeing 737-200 being repositioned by two maintenance technicians to a gate at Houston Intercontinental struck a second Continental 737-300 being pushed back from an adjacent gate. The right wing of the 737-200 was badly damaged and no one was hurt. The NTSB found the maintenance crew did not follow the taxi checklist.
