A Delta Air Lines CRJ900 regional jet flipped upside down upon landing at Toronto Pearson International Airport on February 17, 2025. The incident resulted in 18 injuries among the 80 passengers and crew on board, with three individuals critically injured. The aircraft, operated by Endeavor Air, encountered gusting crosswinds and blowing snow during its approach. Video footage reveals significant damage, including a separated wing. Authorities from Canada and the U.S. are investigating the cause of the crash.
Passenger Pete Koukov shared evacuation footage on social media, highlighting the interior and exterior damage of the overturned plane. The video depicts a chaotic cabin with dislodged tray tables and scattered luggage, as well as ground responders extinguishing flames.
This accident is among several recent aviation incidents in North America, including a small commuter plane crash in Alaska and a medical transport jet crash in Philadelphia.
Despite the severity of the Toronto incident, there were no fatalities, thanks in part to the prompt response by emergency personnel.
