Solange Tremblay, a veteran Canadian flight attendant with more than 25 years of experience, was severely injured when an Air Canada Express flight crashed at New York’s LaGuardia Airport last week. The crash killed both pilots and injured dozens of people, but Tremblay’s survival surprised many because of how she was found after the accident.
Tremblay was working on Air Canada Jazz flight 8646, travelling from Montreal to New York with 72 passengers and four crew members on board when the aircraft collided with a Port Authority fire truck as it was landing. The collision occurred on the runway and the plane’s nose was destroyed on impact.
