Delta Airlines Crash-lands Upside Down at Toronto Airport
By Raisina Correspondent
New Delhi, February 18: In a horrific incident, Delta Airlines crash-landed at Toronto Airport. The airlines flipped upside down after crash-landing. Eight passengers sustained injuries, reports said.
Eighty passengers miraculously survived the crash-landing of Delta Airlines at the Toronto Airport in Canada. Reports said that crash-landing of the airlines left 18 passengers injured.
Passengers have shared videos of the Delta Airlines crash-landing and their evacuation after crash-landing. The CRJ900 airlines flying from Minneapolis in the US crash-landed at the Pearson International Airport in Toronto.
Passengers heaped praise on the pilot of the Delta Airlines who braved almost 75 kmh wind to avert a disaster. The Toronto plane crash has come within three weeks of Washington D.C. plane crash.
There were no survivors in the Washington D.C. plane crash, involving an American airline and a military Black Hawk helicopter. Seventy-seven people had lost their lives after the military helicopter had crashed into the airline on approach to the Reagen International Airport.
Netizens drew parallel between the Toronto plane crash and the DC plane crash. They debated if the Toronto plane crash was also an outcome of the attack on DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) by US President Donald Trump. But there appeared no fault of the Canadian airport traffic controller in the crash-landing of the Delta Airlines at the Pearson International Airport.
The ill-fated Delta Airlines caught fire while the pilot tried to bring the plane to a halt. The plane screeched on the ice sheet at the airport to flip upside down.
Prompt rescue operations at the airport helped passengers safely disembark from the plane. However, reports said that one child passenger was critically injured.
Jonathan Simpson, a veteran pilot, was in-charge of the ill-fated Delta airlines. Netizens credited him for saving the lives of the people with his heroic efforts.
He is a pilot with more than 420 hours of flight time in 69 types of aircraft. “His action today at the Pearson International Airport in Toronto in Canada saved 80 passengers on board,” said a passenger on the social media platform X.
