O.P. Shocked  Airplane landing in Pearson airport in Toronto, Canada goes over edge of runway.
Check it out @ Google News

I almost saw it live, too. Appearently no-one died, but 24 were injured. The plane exploded after everyone got out! It happened around 4PM, people think it happened due to severe thunderstorms... (see link for more...)

Just thought I'd tell you. Considering I live pretty close to Toronto, it's pretty big news (think non-stop news "specials" droning on and on about the same things)!

Was watching CP24, they got in touch with an employee and its an Airbus A340 from AirFrance. AFAIK they could not break as witnesses said the plain just kept going right after the runway ended

I read that a possible reason why it ran off, was "aquaplaning", a common occurance in motorsport. Basically the tyre treads get filled with trapped water, and effectively make the tyre slick, meaning it has no grip (I think thats right). They are saying that because the plane was landing in very heavy rain, it aquaplaned.

Doesn't explain why it exploded though. :| Some guy said he saw lightning before the lights went out though.

Good Job everyone survived. (Y)

I think many people converted to Christianity after that flight.

When there is a plane crash, theres bound to be a aviation fuel leak and short circuit...
