Who is the flight attendant who 'miraculously' survived the accident at LaGuardia Airport?
Great commotion has been generated by the unfortunate accident in which an Air Canada Express CRJ-900 regional jet, operated by Jazz Aviation, collided with an Port Authority fire truck just as it was landing on Sunday night at LaGuardia Airport in New York...
TL;DR
- An Air Canada Express CRJ-900 jet collided with a fire truck during landing at LaGuardia Airport.
- The accident resulted in the deaths of the two pilots and injured 41 people.
- Flight attendant Solange Tremblay survived the crash and was found over 100 meters from the plane.
- Recordings suggest potential miscommunication between air traffic control and the fire truck.
- One hypothesis indicates the fire truck received clearance to cross the runway, but air traffic control later issued a stop command as the plane was landing.
