Plane off runway and on fire in Toronto, Canada...
 

Air France jet.

Not looking good for possible survivors. Thusfar, they are blaming weather.

Air France. 200 passengers. From the looks of it, it's a long, damn way from the runway. Apparently went off the runway and caught fire.

I don't see how anyone could survive that fireball...:(

What was it trying to do landing during a severe thunderstorm?

You don't look around yourself much do ya. People can survive some terrible things...

I hope you are right. I guess we'll see. The shots I saw looked like a plane almost completely engulfed.

Depends on when it caught fire, of course. From the looks of how far it skidded and the fact that the airframe looks to be surrounded by trees, I wouldn't surprised if it sheared off a wing. That's bad.

I hope I'm wrong.

Sudden thunderstorm, possible microburst. Speculating that it was an ILS approach.

where are you guys watching this?

CNN, MSNBC, Fox News.

Pilot and co-pilot survived and are being debriefed. Hopefully that's a good sign.

Wow, where did you hear that?

That is a very good sign.

Fox via Global Television News. Scooping the others, as usual.

:p

According to sources coveriing the event here, no one has gotten near the plan yet.. its still on fire. It looks bad.

Just saw another eplosion from the plane
