HALIFAX– The Transportation Safety Board of Canada is checking out an event entailing an aircraft at the Halifax Stanfield International Airport, which one traveler called a harsh touchdown that stimulated fires.
Nikki Valentine, a Halifax female that got on the BUDDY Airlines trip, claimed travelers really felt a “massive rumble” upon touchdown Saturday evening.
“The cabin tilted, we saw sparks and then flames and then smoke started getting sucked into the cabin,” she informed The Canadian Press in a straight message over social networks.
Airport representative Tiffany Chase claimed Saturday an Air Canada Express trip run by chum Airlines, getting here fromSt John’s, N.L., experienced an event upon touchdown at roughly 9:30 p.m.
Air Canada representative Peter Fitzpatrick claimed late Saturday that the aircraft experienced a “suspected landing gear issue” after arrival and was incapable to get to the terminal.
Fitzpatrick claimed the team and 73 travelers were off-loaded by bus and no one aboard was harmed.
A Nova Scotia RCMP representative claimed on Saturday that some small injuries were reported, yet cleared up Sunday that actually no person was harmed.
Valentine claimed she is “especially thankful the pilot was able to get ahold of the situation very fast.”
The case briefly stopped trip task at the airport terminal.
As of Sunday mid-day, Valentine and various other travelers were still without the bags they were advised to leave on the aircraft. Valentine claimed she called Air Canada, that informed her that maybe as much as 3 even more days prior to their bags are returned as the examination right into the case proceeds.
“A lot of people have things like house keys or wallets they needed and couldn’t get,” she claimed.
“It’s all proper procedure, and I’d rather the inconvenience (of missing bags) than if anything bad had happened, of course, but it’s still tough.”
This record by The Canadian Press was very first releasedDec 29, 2024.
