Crash Simulation
Military and search-and-rescue personnel from Canada, the United States and Russia dealt with a simulated airline crash on Vancouver Island on Wednesday to help be prepared if a large passenger plane ever crashes in the North.
I'm not entirely sure how realistic a simulated crash on Vancouver Island in April is compared to a crash in the Arctic where even now we have several feet of snow on the ground, but it is nice to know they're at least thinking about it. I still wonder how long it would take them to find a crash site and where they'd be launching the searches from. There's a whole lot of empty space up here.
