‘A Miracle’: A flight attendant was launched from her seat during a fatal runway crash and the reason she survived has investigators stunned

In what’s being called a “complete miracle,” a flight attendant was ejected over 100 meters from an Air Canada Jazz jet during a fatal runway collision at New York’s LaGuardia airport on Sunday, yet miraculously survived. Solange Tremblay, who has been a flight attendant with Jazz Aviation for 26 years, was still strapped into her seat when she was found, a detail that has left many stunned.

According to The Guardian, the CRJ-900 jet, operated by Jazz Aviation under the Air Canada Express brand, collided with a fire truck as it was landing. This horrific incident tragically killed both the pilot and co-pilot onboard. Beyond the fatalities, nine individuals, including Tremblay, were sent to the hospital with various injuries.
