Preliminary Report on Delta Plane Crash in Toronto Reveals High Descent Rate and Landing Gear Issues
A preliminary report from the Transportation Safety Board outlines critical findings regarding the recent Delta plane crash at Pearson Airport in Toronto. Investigators noted that the jet experienced a high rate of descent prior to landing, which triggered fast descent warnings in the cockpit. The right main landing gear collapsed upon impact, leading the aircraft to flip over and burst into flames. Eyewitness accounts and additional video footage detail the moments leading up to the crash, suggesting potential pilot error and mechanical failures. The report indicates the plane descended too quickly and hints at a fracture in the landing gear support. As investigations continue, affected passengers are pursuing legal action against the airline, citing recklessness and negligence.
