LaGuardia Disaster: Air Canada Express Crash | Captain Steeeve

Captain Steeeve breaks down the tragic runway collision at LaGuardia Airport involving an Air Canada Express CRJ-900 and an airport fire vehicle. Late Sunday night, an arriving regional jet collided with a fire truck that had been cleared to cross the runway — with ATC audio capturing last-second calls to stop just moments before impact. The result was catastrophic, claiming the lives of both pilots and injuring dozens more. In this episode, Captain Steeeve walks through what we know so far, including the sequence of events, how runway incursions happen, and the multiple layers of safety that are designed to prevent exactly this kind of accident. He also explains the critical role of air traffic control, ground vehicle coordination, and situational awareness — and how even small breakdowns can align into a devastating outcome. As always, our hearts and prayers go out to the victims of this tragic accident and their families and friends who are grieving during this difficult time.
