TSB to release final report on fatal Sanikiluaq plane crash Monday
Crash took the life of six-month-old Isaac Appaqaq after plane landed past community's runway
Sanikiluaq residents will learn details Monday about a 2012 plane crash in the community that took the life of a six-month-old boy.
The Transportation Safety Board is set to release its report Monday into the crash.
TSB spokesperson John Cottreau says that "you can expect a review of all of the information we were able to gather, as well as the analysis that our investigators did of the accident to find out what happened and why it happened."
The crash occurred just three days before Christmas in 2012. A Fairchild Metro twin-engine plane, en route from Winnipeg and carrying two pilots and seven passengers, overran the runway in Sanikiluaq on its second attempt at landing.
Six-month-old Isaac Appaqaq was killed in the crash, while the two pilots and six other passengers were injured.
The Transport Canada occurrence report from the crash says the Perimeter Aviation turbo-prop plane touched down hard on its second approach and came to rest between 150 and 200 metres past the end of the runway.
The TSB completed a draft report into the crash in September of 2014. That report went through first an internal review, and then an external review by aviation experts, before its expected release Monday.
