A Delta air lines aircraft made a dramatic crash landing at the Toronto Pearson International Airport as the flight was found in its unusual position.
On Monday, the Delta airlines plane crashed and was found in 'upside down' at the snowy runway of the airport, leaving eight injured, New York Post reported.
Delta Flight 4819, which took off from Minneapolis about 11.47 am (US times), appears flipped on its back on a snowy runway, according to photos and video posted online.
Several images and videos surfaced on the internet showing the flight at upside down position with several people roaming around the plane.
Sharing the videos on X, netizens scratching their head on the way the flight landed.
One of the users said, "The plane appears to have landed upside down somehow. I have never seen that before. It seems to be a PATTERN now of multiple aircraft related disasters, all happening together in a very short span of time (less than a month). We don't know what the cause is for certain, but the implication is NOT good, considering plane used to be the safest way to travel. Its becoming more and more apparent that it is NO LONGER SAFE to fly anymore."

While another said, "What on earth is happening?! I've never seen a civilian aircraft upside down like this. 'Toronto Pearson plane crash involving a Delta Airlines plane arriving from Minneapolis'."
The collision occurred after a winter storm hit the region over the weekend, leaving almost nine inches of snowfall at the airport. This prompted maintenance teams to work through Sunday night to ensure essential runways were cleared.

“Toronto Pearson is aware of an incident upon landing involving a Delta Airlines plane arriving from Minneapolis,” the airport wrote on X on Monday. “Emergency teams are responding. All passengers and crew are accounted for.”
The event follows two fatal accidents in the United States. An American Airlines aircraft collided with a Black Hawk military helicopter near Reagan National Airport on January 29, resulting in 67 fatalities.
A few days afterwards, all six occupants perished when a medical aircraft crashed in northeast Pennsylvania.
