It was really hot today (like most of the summer so far) and then a brief
rain fall and grayed sky around the time of the incident so lighting must of
been a factor. Would say though that if Air France made the landing going
the opposite direction (landing going eastwards verse the western landing it
did) it could of been much worst as there is a small regional terminal and
then higway 427. Wonder if they had radioed declearing an emergency and was
directed going west. Thank God everyone is safe.
