Apparently the pilots didn't know they were missing the nose wheel till the Sparks started to fly.

Didn't they see the "wheel missing" caution light??
Re: Nose Wheel Falls Off Jet and Crashes Through Montreal Ro
Montrealers are fairly used to stuff falling from above, but normally it's bridges and overpasses.

"St-Laurent borough mayor Alan DeSousa said he was surprised by the incident.
“I’m shocked,” DeSousa said. “I’m shocked as a mayor, and as someone who lives under the same flight path.”
He said in 42 years since he has lived in the borough, there have been no similar incidents to this one.
“I’m thankful there were no injuries, and I hope that the Transportation Safety Board works as quickly as possible to put in place the appropriate measures, if necessary, to make sure something like this doesn’t happen again,” DeSousa added."
Yes. One incident every 42 years definitely warrants a TSB response.

At least the wheel could've waited until they got to the runway before departing like in this incident in April...how rude!

Silly me, I thought there already were appropriate measures in place to ensure wheels don't fall off airplanes. Learn something new everyday....
