A pilot and copilot have died after an Air Canada plane collided with a fire truck at LaGuardia Airport in New York. The flight with Jazz Aviation, Air Canada’s regional airline, was carrying 76 people when it hit the runway at around 11:30 p.m. The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, which runs the airport, confirmed that the 72 passengers and four crew members were accounted for, but the two pilots, who were based out of Canada, died. Air Canada and Jazz Aviation are cooperating with the Transportation Safety Board of Canada and the National Transportation Safety board in the United States in the investigation of the cause of this incident. The airport was expected to remain closed until at least 2 p.pm.
