As someone who is flying constantly, the only comment I have on the Air France crash today in Toronto is that each of the flight crew deserve some kind of Medal of Honor for getting everyone out alive.

Only minor injuries as plane skids off runway, catches fire in Toronto



More than 300 passengers and crew on board an Air France flight escaped from a fiery wreck when their plane skidded off the runway on Tuesday afternoon at Toronto's Pearson Airport.

Only 24 people received minor injuries.
Rescue crews trying to extinguish the flames.

The plane, an Airbus A-340-300 was en route from Paris' Charles de Gaulle Airport and was due to arrive in Toronto shortly before 4 p.m. ET. The weather at the time was severe, with high winds, heavy rain and lightning.
