Solange Tremblay: Air Canada flight attendant suffered multiple fractures

According to her daughter, Tremblay suffered multiple fractures in the accident.

Sarah Lépine told Quebec TVA News that her mother was strapped into the seat behind the pilot when the accident occurred.

The impact from the fire truck was so severe that Tremblay was ejected from the plane and landed on the tarmac 320 feet away.

“It was a complete miracle. At the moment of impact, her seat was ejected more than 100 meters away from the aircraft. They found her, but she was still strapped to her seat,” Lepping said.

“She had a guardian angel watching over her,” Lepine added. “It could be worse.”

Solange Tremblay to undergo surgery

According to Lepine, Tremblay will undergo surgery in the hospital for a broken leg.

Supporters gathered on Tremblay’s Facebook page, with many offering their “thoughts and prayers.”

Just a few weeks ago, Tremblay was responding to a post that claimed passengers on a plane had their luggage taken while being evacuated from the plane in an unrelated incident. The post states that attempting to carry luggage during an evacuation should be considered “punishable.”

“Yes, absolutely!” Tremblay replied. “Lifetime (sic) ban and huge fine! Human life is more important.”

According to Tremblay’s social media profiles, she started working at Jazz 26 years ago as a flight attendant.

In air traffic control recordings captured moments before the crash, crews can be heard radioing to allow the vehicle to cross a section of the runway before trying to stop its movement.

“Stop, Truck 1. Stop,” the controller said as he tried to guide the incoming plane to land.
