Delta jet flips upside down on a snowy Toronto runway and all 80 aboard survive

LA Times  

A Delta Air Lines jet flipped on its roof while landing Monday at Toronto’s Pearson Airport, but all 80 people on board survived and those hurt had relatively minor injuries, the airport’s chief executive said. Peter Carlson, a passenger traveling to Toronto for a paramedics conference, said the landing was “very forceful.” “All the sudden everything just kind of went sideways and then next thing I know it’s kind of a blink and I’m upside down still strapped in,” he told CBC News. Delta CEO Ed Bastian said in a statement that “the hearts of the entire global Delta family are with those affected.” Toronto Pearson Fire Chief Todd Aitken said 18 passengers were taken to the hospital. “It sounds to me like a controller trying to be helpful, meaning the wind is going to give you a bumpy ride coming down, that you’re going to be up and down through the glide path,” said John Cox, CEO of aviation safety consulting firm Safety Operating Systems in St. Petersburg, Fla. “So it was windy.
