After a plane was destroyed and started to burn, it borders a miracle that there were only injuries. A survivor can hardly believe: it is “really great” that he is still alive – if you see the video above, the happiness of the passengers and the crew is really hard to understand. Another passenger said that “like a bat” hung in his belt.
80 people were aboard the Bombardier machine when it destroyed during the landing and then lying on the roof and burning. Fortunately, 18 passengers were injured – as Canadian media reported, these are only slightly injury.
“Textbook” response after the crash
The response of the rescue staff after the crash was “textbook,” said the airport authority, Deborah Flint, in a press conference after the accident. “We are very grateful that there were no fatalities and only relatively minor injuries,” she said.
