It's March 24. I'm Corey with the story. This is Canada News Today, driven by AI. A tragic crash in New York's LaGuardia Airport claimed the lives of two air-Canada pilots late Sunday night. Their jet, carrying more than 70 passengers, collided with a fire truck during landing. Several people on board suffered injuries, but most escaped serious harm. Officials are still piecing together what went wrong, but the impact was severe enough to kill the pilot and co-pilot instantly. The flight had come in from Canada without any prior warnings reported. Family members of pilot Antoine Forrest have been sharing their grief online. His brother posted a touching farewell, reflecting on Antoine's adventurous spirit and constant travels. A great on described him as someone who treated her like a grandmother and chased his lifelong dream of flying. Antoine had built a solid career in aviation, working for two different airlines over the past five years, according to his professional profile.

As investigations continue, this incident serves as a stark reminder of the risks pilots face every day, leaving a void in the lives of those who knew. Him best.
