First Air 737 Down In Nunavut..... :-(

[Canuck[_10_]]

I'm not sure which of their 737s crashed but there were only a couple of
survivors. The aircraft was attempting to land in very heavy fog when it hit
a mountain.

Sad. My heart is with the families and loved ones who lost someone today.

It seems it was one of their 737-200's.

The crash was suppose to occur to the west of the runway. The mountain
is on the east side
