Plane goes off the runway at Dorval: 05h20 this morning

Just witnessed a plane (looks like a learJet) doing an medical evacuation flight going off the runway at nearly 100 mph. Our office overlooks the runway and this just happened few minutes ago. No severe injuries so far.

Dorval Aviation is a good school but be ready to spend much more for flight hours. They are the only school located at internation airport (trudeau) so with busy traffic you'll be paying for taxi time, wake clear, etc..That can also be an advantage however.

Not sure, but I think Jovi's plane is a BAC111.

I work for executive FBO in Montreal, our ramp is not big enough to accompany a 707.

Edit: Sorry, it was not a BAC111 (confused with another band)
