Solange Tremblay, a veteran Canadian flight attendant with more than 25 years of experience, was seriously injured in the crash of an Air Canada Express flight at New York’s LaGuardia Airport last week. The crash killed both pilots and injured dozens, but Tremblay’s survival surprised many because of how he was found after the crash.Tremblay was working on Air Canada Jazz Flight 8646, which was traveling from Montreal to New York with 72 passengers and four crew members, when the plane collided with a Port Authority fire truck while landing. The collision occurred on the runway and the front section of the aircraft was destroyed by the impact.Witnesses and emergency personnel were stunned when Tremblay was found more than 320 feet from the wreckage, still strapped to his jump seat, on the tarmac. His daughter, Sarah Lepine, called his survival a “miracle”. Tremblay remained conscious during and after the crash.Tremblay suffered several serious injuries. His legs were badly broken and required metal plates, his spinal cord was fractured, and much of the skin on his legs was lost, which would require grafts. During the initial treatment, he also needed blood transfusion.Photos shared by his family show him in a hospital bed as he is expected to make a long recovery. A GoFundMe campaign set up by his daughter has raised money to support his medical care, surgery and rehabilitation costs.Following the crash at LaGuardia, the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) and Canadian officials began investigations to determine how the fire truck came to rest on the runway as the plane was landing. The accident led to the temporary closure of the airport and raised questions about runway safety procedures.Both pilots, identified as Antoine Forest and Mackenzie Gunther, were killed in the crash.
