A plane from Paris France crashed at Toronto Airport when the wind pushed it down more.

2 pilots survived and I think 290 casualties. The storm from Toronto arrived here in Ottawa.

joking attitude (well that is bad, but at least it isnt all these crazy jihad vandals this time. cant we have at LEAST 2 months with no accidents? god might take away the earth from us,we havent been playing well with it.) serious attitude. was it a human or technical failure?could you post a link? its a very gloomy place now adays

Any fatalities?

 

It's terrible when these things happen, but it couldn't have been prevented, it's not as if anyone made it happen. Still a tragedy though.

arent casualties aka fatalities?

Casualties go to hospital to be treated, fatalities aren't so lucky.

0 dead and all are fine. It was just a bad plane power outage when the lightning struck it but it over shot the runway. Its a wake up call that Canada is not safe either

ya you have a maple leaf for a flag! its bout to upset someone! whats that all aboot? what did you do to peeve off mother nature! i think they also said it was an airbus 83-40 and its the first crash of that type.they were lucky it didnt blow up on impact.

I heard it was an Airbus A340 or something like that.

i mihght have heard wrong, never have been familar with air plane types

"Welcome to Canada", someome joked. I found that funny and someone saddening. You crashed in Canada and someone jokes about the situation Still funny tho.

hey at least you have a nice fire to curl up and sip some hot cocoa

lol I wish that was true in the winter time but its summer and extremly hot I went near the porch door of mine and got greeted by a humid air.

you guys have.....summer? i thought it was just a winter wonderland full of elk and small rabbits. well the eskimos sure could come to the fire, get on a tobaggan and get over here you alaskans!

Even the North Pole has summer but not as warm

Considering that something like 90% of the Canadian Population lives within a hundred miles of the US-Canada border you'd expect them to have summer.

meh, canada will have summer as soon as hawaii has tropical climate.........right?

come up north and see for your self

What you all arguin aboot??

I'm glad no one died.

Well, it was an Airbus A340 built 2001. 35,000 hours 8,000 landings , checked last time in July, the 5th. Pilots was working at Air France for at least 20 years. Only 43 injured but nothing serious.

 

I'll thjat all penssenger had left the plane before the fire started as it seems that the Crew of the plane stayed totally "cool" (Lol, I don't know the english term for "sang froid" "Cold blood" )

"Straight headed." "cool under Pressure" take your pick.

 

I am glad that noone has died. I'm expecting the 3rd cell to strike London tomorrow so everyone watch this space.
