update: an air canada CRJ-900LR crashed into a firetruck responding to another emergince with a united 737 max 8, at around 11:35 the CRJ struck the firetruck at taxiway delta skidding off the runway to the right before coming to a stop with “the nose tilted to the sky.” incredible only the captian and co-pilot passed which is very sad for everyone and my familys prayers go out to the familys of the pilots but its incredible that all but 9 people have made it without serious injuries and the firefighters in the fire truck that was hit are in stable condition.
the plane stuck the fire truck was going around ~30kts or ~34 mph.
a flight attendant was found strapt to her seat under the plane and had fallen though the floor of the plane when it has tilted. an investigation is underway.
