Toronto's Turbulent Landing: A Plane's Wild Ride
TorontoTue Feb 18 2025
A plane from Delta Air Lines had a rough landing in Toronto. The plane flipped over on the runway, losing its tail and one wing. Everyone on board, 80 people in total, managed to get out safely. Eighteen people got hurt, but luckily, no one died. The incident happened during bad weather with strong winds and snow.
The plane was coming from Minneapolis. The passengers did not expect anything to go wrong during the final descent. Everything seemed normal until the plane touched down. Suddenly, the plane flipped sideways. Pete Koukov, a skier from Colorado, was on the flight. He said that everything was fine until the wheels hit the ground. Then, chaos happened.
This event is part of a series of recent airplane incidents worldwide. In December, a crash in South Korea killed 179 people. Another crash near Washington left 67 people dead. These events have made travelers nervous. The cause of the Toronto crash is still under investigation.
The plane's roof became the floor. This is a scary thought. Passengers must have been terrified. The plane's design and safety features helped everyone escape. This is a reminder of how important safety measures are in aviation.
