During the incident, parts of the plane broke off after a hard landing, leading to flames and smoke before it flipped upside down. All 76 passengers and four crew members survived; however, two individuals sustained critical injuries. Delta is offering $30,000 to each passenger affected by this event.

The cause of the crash remains undetermined as investigations continue. The TSB has confirmed that both the cockpit voice recorder (CVR) and flight data recorder (FDR) have been sent to Ottawa for further examination.

Regarding the aircraft involved, it has been moved to a hangar at Toronto Pearson International Airport for additional inspection. Investigators will also examine the runway before its return to normal operations.

Delta Connection Flight 4819 was conducted by registration N932XJ, a CRJ900LR delivered to Endeavor Air in January 2012. Originally part of Mesaba Airlines' fleet since September 2008, Endeavor is a wholly owned subsidiary of Delta focusing on regional flights within the United States.

This incident occurs amid heightened scrutiny over aviation safety following several recent incidents across North America.
