While some details are still emerging, this doesn’t look good at all…
The CRJ-900 ended up with its nose in the air, with the fire truck barely identifiable, and the plane’s cockpit largely destroyed. Air Canada’s CRJ-900s have 76 seats, with a crew of four (including two pilots and two flight attendants).
Following the incident, LaGuardia Airport was closed, given rescue efforts. My thoughts are with those involved in this accident, as there are reports of critical injuries, especially among firefighters. I’m also thinking about the pilots, because that cockpit situation doesn’t look good either.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on One Mile at a Time.
