Appears in 1 story
Deceased
Late Sunday night, an Air Canada Express regional jet landing at New York's LaGuardia Airport struck a Port Authority fire truck that had been cleared to cross the active runway. Both pilots—Captain Antoine Forest, 30, and First Officer MacKenzie Gunther—were killed when the cockpit was destroyed on impact. Forty-one of the 76 people aboard were hospitalized, and the airport shut down for 14 hours, canceling more than 600 flights.
