An Air Canada flight from St John’s made an emergency landing at Halifax Airport on Saturday night after its landing gear malfunctioned, causing the plane to skid down the runway. Passengers reported hearing a loud crash as the aircraft tilted at a 20-degree angle, with the left wing scraping the ground. Smoke and fire were visible on the plane’s left side as it came to a stop. Passenger Nikki Valentine described the intense shaking and smoke entering the cabin. Fire crews quickly extinguished the blaze, and no injuries were reported. Flights were temporarily suspended for safety checks.
