re: Best video yet of Delta airplane crashing in Canada and flipping

Those aren’t young men. They’ve likely been flying for years, before DEI initiatives.

maybe, maybe not

good question, I’d like to know what runway they were landing on and what the surface winds were, might have been fighting that and got off the centerline and just kind of lost SA?

They were landing on R23. Two closest wind reports were 28G35KT and 20G32KT both out of 270 degrees

Broken cigs around 3000 ft. Blowing snow reported. 6 sm vsby

would have been sprinting away.

I’ve seen too many movies, I would’ve been hauling arse thinking the whole thing was about to blow.

Since major airline carrier crashes and incidents are at a all-time low since introducing these programs,

are you going to credit the DEI pilots for our safety or was that was actually the generation that crashing airplanes every month in the 80s and 90s?

a good landing is one where you walk away from

True. But none of those poor bastsrds who walked away from that had clean drawers, that's for damn sure...

Probably not many here have tried to land a plane with that smokey looking snow blowing but if you have driven in it you know it can affect your awareness/depth perception so that very well could have played a roll in this.

They also were dealing with a crosswind of about 15 knots from the right so they correctly dip that right wing some, but unfortunately it looks like they dipped the right side too much and it caught the ground causing the plane to flip.

Also from that video from aircraft holding short for takeoff the CRJ touched down way too short on the runway they should have been landing about 800’-1000’ farther down

I thought the visibility was excellent

that’s really not much

no, they were in the touchdown zone

I’ll save the faa a few hundred million.


They was comin’ in hot. Maybe snow caused lack of depth perception…either that or a massively under qualified DEI hire.

I'll take DEI Hire for $600

They gonna get in trouble

But its also the best video for NTSB or canadian NTSB to see what happened

How does every major airport not have an HD camera on every runway? Cameras are cheap
