Air Traffic Control gave clearance to the fire truck to cross the runway while the Air Canada plane was landing. After realizing their mistake ATC tried to stop the truck but it was too late. Both pilots died and 41 people were transported to local hospitals including passengers, crew, and fire fighters.

Remember when a single commercial airliner crash in a year was a huge scandal for a government?
