Delta Air Lines have offered compensation to the passengers who were on board a plane that flipped over after it landed on the runway at Toronto’s Pearson Airport.

Airport staff looked on as Delta Flight 4819 touched down hard on the runway on 17 February and flipped, with flames bursting from the aircraft as it rolled over.

Fortunately, despite the plane crash, everyone on board out of the 76 passengers and four crew members survived.

Some of the survivors from the plane crash have been sharing footage and accounts of what it was like to be on board, with videos of those in the cabin filming themselves upside down within the wreckage.

Another passenger posted a video of the plane being hosed down by emergency services reacting to the plane crash.

NBC News reports that Delta Air Lines is now offering $30,000 (£23,800) to each of the passengers who were on board the plane, with a spokesperson for the airline saying this cash offer ‘has no strings attached and does not affect rights’.

In essence that would mean that accepting the compensation now is not going to prevent any of the passengers from pursuing further action over the plane crash should that be their wish.

The total of people injured in the crash has climbed to 21 out of the 80 who were on board the plane, and according to Delta as of yesterday (20 February) only one person who was on the flight remains in hospital.

Deborah Flint, CEO and president of Greater Toronto Airports Authority said that none of the injuries sustained in the crash were life threatening, so it seems that all 80 people on the flight will end up surviving the crash.

Carlson spoke to CBS about passengers coming together and helping each other out of the wreckage.

He said: “All of a sudden everything just kind of went sideways and then next things I know is kind of a blink and I’m upside down still strapped in.

“It sounded, I mean it was just cement and metal. What I saw was everyone on that plane suddenly became very close in terms of how to help one another, how to console one another.

“That was powerful, but there was a definite ‘what now, who’s leading, how do we find ourselves away from this?'”

An investigation into the crash and exactly what caused it is underway, though some aviation experts have already offered their opinions on what might have happened.
