Hope there were no lap babies on the plane.
Two of the injured are kids, so might have been.

Can't you take the carseat on and install it in the seat?
I know it won't have all of the straps and latches that the newer ones use, but can't you still just belt them into the seat?

Shiiiiit. Waiting for the video on this one, that is wild.

Hopefully no serious injuries. Also, always wear the seatbelt.

Unfortunately, this appears to be a crosswind landing that went wrong - hopefully those individuals in critical condition recover

That should help. Get the rot out, Trump.

The left blames Trump, the far right blames DEI.

Now I realize that I'm only an aviation nut, and low time private pilot. So you can dismiss my crazy conspiracy theories. It's not like I have any inside info.

But hear me out, and I know this is crazy.

Could it be, somehow, some way, even if it's a 0.0001% chance that maybe, just possibly, the incident might have been caused by all that white stuff on the ground?

Jet fuel can't melt steel beams, the 9/11 truthers say, but could it be that jet plane tires could slip and slide on snow and ice?

Tin foil hat thinking, I know, but keep an open mind.

More details needed including who/what was flying the plane. Preliminary information looks like pilot error landing in cross wind so don't rule out DEI. Regional jet pilots not Delta mainline…

Your chances of being killed while driving to the airport is vastly higher than the chance of being in a plane crash.

Comments on Victor's page indicate possibility they were beyond specifications/limitations for crosswind landing.

WInds 270 @ 23 gusting 33
Landing 23

So a 23 knot wind at 40* off the Right nose

Exactly. However, if one is dumb enough to think it DID have an impact, how many did Trump fire IN CANADA? The location of this crash, right?

These cooks are really dumb.

Yeah, nearly everyone killed in a plane crash survived the drive to the airport but not the flight.
