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.

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

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