*Delta Airlines Plane Crash: Why did flight 4819 flip upside down upon landing in Toronto?*
A Delta Airlines plane crash-landed in Toronto, Canada’s largest city, on Monday, but fortunately, all 80 people on board survived. The incident occurred amid windy conditions following a snowstorm at Toronto Pearson International Airport. At least 18 people were injured, with the plane flipping upside down during landing.
According to a report in Al Jazeera, experts believe the plane flipped due to the adverse weather conditions, including strong winds and heavy snow. Aviation analyst Scott Hamilton noted that such flips, though rare, can occur because of factors like weather, speed, and braking anomalies.
The report also quotes John Cox, an aviation safety expert, saying that while the aircraft is designed to handle weather like this, questions remain, particularly about the missing right wing of the plane.
