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

A Delta Air Lines jet crashed and flipped upside down on a snowy runway at Toronto Pearson International Airport on Monday, February 17, 2025. All 80 passengers and crew on board survived the incident, with 18 individuals transported to hospitals for relatively minor injuries. The flight, originating from Minneapolis, landed forcefully and burst into flames before coming to rest on its roof. Emergency crews responded quickly to the scene. The cause of the crash is under investigation by the Transportation Safety Board of Canada, with assistance from the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board. This incident marks the fourth major aviation accident in North America in recent weeks. The Mitsubishi CRJ-900LR aircraft involved is a commonly used regional jet. Eyewitness accounts describe a sudden sideways motion followed by the inversion of the aircraft. Experts are examining factors such as weather conditions and the aircraft's mechanical state, including the unusual observation of a missing right wing post-crash.
