One of the pilots involved in the Delta Air Lines runway collision had no clue he hit another plane … new audio reveals.
In audio from the cockpit, a pilot asks … “We just hit something on the taxiway, could you tell us what it was?”

Delta says the wing of an Airbus A350 hit the tail of a smaller, Endeavor Air CRJ-900 while both planes were on the taxiway … and it sounds like the pilots in the larger jet were caught totally off guard.
Fortunately, Delta Air Lines says no injuries were reported in this incident.
