Summary at a Glance

A Delta Air Lines jet with 80 people onboard crash landed Monday at the Toronto airport, officials said, flipping upside down and leaving at least 15 people injured but causing no fatalities.

A commercial jetliner and an Army helicopter collided near Washington DC on January 29, killing 67 people, a medical transport plane crashed in Philadelphia on January 31, killing the six people on board and another person on the ground, and 10 were killed in a plane crash in Alaska.

Delta CEO Ed Bastian said: ‘The hearts of the entire global Delta family are with those affected by today’s incident at Toronto Pearson International Airport.

Mr Cox, who flew for US Air for 25 years and has worked on US National Transportation Safety Board investigations, said the CRJ-900 aircraft is a proven aircraft that’s been in service for decades and does a good job of handling inclement weather.

All 80 passengers and crew on a Delta Airlines flight that crashed and flipped upside down at Canada’s Toronto Pearson Airport have survived.
