CRJ-900

The CRJ-900 is a regional jet aircraft, in this case operated by Air Canada Express. It is newsworthy due to a recent incident at LaGuardia Airport in New York. On Sunday night, the CRJ-900, arriving from Montreal, collided with a ground vehicle, specifically a fire truck, upon landing. The collision occurred on runway 4 and resulted in injuries to multiple people. The incident led to the temporary closure of LaGuardia Airport, with the FAA suspending ground operations. Flightradar24 reported the plane struck the vehicle at approximately 39 km/h. The event is significant as it disrupted airport operations, raised safety concerns, and is currently under investigation by relevant authorities.
