Wow, must have been scary for the crew and pax on the little Bombardier. Just spun round like a Dinky toy.

There is another picture showing the wing tip of the A380 left in the little CRJ!
Can't find it now...

Just seen it too, but have closed the page.
Makes my little scrape with my gatepost a few days ago look so minor ...

It definitely looks like that, but I think it's the glare from a red flashing light, I think the quality of the recording perhaps makes the flash slightly blurred !

Ouch, first QF then EK and now AF. Airbus will have to open up a special A380 wing repair division for all of these damaged wings!
