The investigators recovered the black boxes of the Delta Air Lines flight which crashed during the landing at Toronto Pearson airport on February 18, 2025. The cockpit voice recorder and the flight data recorder were sent to a laboratory for analysis while the authorities work to determine the cause of the cause of the cause of the cause of the cause of the cause of the cause of the cause of the cause of the accident that made 21 people injured.
The plane, a CRJ-900 bomber operated by Endeavor Air, was on a Minneapolis flight when he turned to landing. The plane, carrying 80 people, skidded and caught fire after having had an impact on the track, causing the separation of the plane parts. Authorities also examine video sequences and eye tests, which suggests that Rafale winds and snow may have played a role in the incident.
According to Ken Webster, principal investigator of the Safety Board of Canada (TSB) transportation, it is too early to speculate on the exact cause of the accident. “At this point, we collect evidence and share updates as soon as possible,” he said in a statement.
The survey is supported by teams from the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), Transport Canada and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), as well as by Delta technical experts.
In addition to the black boxes, the investigators examine the weather conditions at the time of the accident. The incident occurred in the middle of the snow and Rafale winds up to 65 km / h, which led aviation experts to wonder if these conditions contributed to raw landing.
The next day, the local emergency services were rented for their rapid response, the firefighters extinguishing the flames in a few minutes and helping the passengers to evacuate. While most passengers have undergone minor injuries, some more serious but non -fatal injuries.
Airport operations were disrupted due to the accident, two of the main PEARSON tracks remaining closed. The airport advised travelers to check the flight statutes before heading to the terminal. Several flights have been canceled, while others have been delayed as the investigations continue.
The Canadian and American authorities, including the Minister of Transport Anita Anand and the US transport secretary Sean Duffy, have supported the investigation.
