Delta up-side-down plane crash at Toronto airport marks North America's 4th major aviation disaster in a month
All 80 people aboard the Delta plane that flipped upside down and crash landed in Toronto survived, but three, including a child, are critically injured.
The dramatic, up-side-down Delta plane crash at Torontoâs Pearson Airport marked the fourth major aviation disaster in North America in the last month.Â
The Federal Aviation Administration said all 80 people aboard the jet were evacuated, as images showed the aircraft with a shewn off tail and wing belly up in the snow at Toronto's airport.Â
The CRJ-900, which departed from Minneapolis/St. Paul International Airport, overturned while coming in for a landing in Toronto. High winds and drifting snow reportedly had already prompted flight delays and cancelations at the airport.Â
Air traffic control audio released after the crash depicts officials describing how the plane was "ups-side-down and burning" on the tarmac.

Delta Air Lines said "18 customers with injuries" had been transported to area hospitals. At least three people suffered critical but not life-threatening injuries, a spokesperson for the paramedic service that was on scene told Fox News Digital.Â
In the airline's most recent update, which was provided at 10:33 p.m. ET, Delta Air Lines said that "no fatalities have been reported and some of the customers initially transported to area hospitals have been released."Â
Two patients were taken by air ambulance to two different trauma centers â Sunnybrook Health Sciences Center and St. Michaelâs Hospital â in Toronto. A child, about four years old, was transported to The Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto.
The cause of the crash remains under investigation, as officials are expected to provide an update to the media early Tuesday.Â
"The Transportation Safety Board of Canada will be in charge of the investigation and will provide any updates," the FAA said.
Delta said its incident response team deployed to Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ) Monday evening, "to support efforts surrounding Delta Connection flight 4819, operated by Endeavor Air, that was involved in a single-aircraft accident at YYZ around 2:15 p.m. ET." The team is said to include "specially trained Delta Care Team representatives who will provide support for customers and their loved ones."Â
"Members of Endeavor Airâs leadership team, including CEO Jim Graham, are also en route to ensure full cooperation with investigators," Delta said Monday night.Â
"The hearts of the entire global Delta family are with those affected by todayâs incident at Toronto-Pearson International Airport," Delta CEO Ed Bastian said in a statement. "I want to express my thanks to the many Delta and Endeavor team members and the first responders on site. We are working to confirm the details and will share the most current information on news.delta.com as soon as it becomes available. In the meantime, please take care and stay safe."
