It was a terrifying scene Monday when a passenger plane crashed, turned upside down and caught fire while attempting to land at Toronto Pearson International Airport.
But all 80 people on the plane survived. Twenty-one of them were taken to hospitals with injuries, officials said, and by Thursday morning all had been released, according to Delta Air Lines.
The crash happened on a gusty day following heavy snowfall. On Tuesday afternoon, a senior investigator with the Transportation Safety Board of Canada said it was “far too early to say what the cause of this accident might be.”
The harrowing incident briefly halted traffic at Canada’s busiest airport, and it was the fourth major aviation accident in North America in the past month. It happened three weeks after an American Airlines plane collided midair with a US Army helicopter in Washington, DC, killing all 67 people aboard.
Here are some of the stories that made headlines over the past week, as well as some photos that caught our eye.
