The National Post reports in its Friday edition that passengers on board an Air Canada flight from Antigua to Toronto suffered a series of mishaps including an aborted takeoff and an emergency landing which left some wondering if they would finish the trip alive. The Post's Tom Blackwell writes that passengers say that the captain explained he stopped the plane just before going airborne because he had neglected to activate an on-board computer. The emergency landing was blamed on faulty fuel distribution, similar to a problem the crew addressed before they left Antigua. Passengers question whether the Airbus A319 should have taken off at all on June 3 after its earlier troubles. "It was the absolute worst and most terrifying flight experience I've ever had," said Dan Fuller, 33. "There were too many incidents that were occurring back to back to back to think everything was done by the book." Air Canada says the aborted takeoff, while rare, was at the relatively low speed of 80 knots and the plane had no known safety issues when it eventually left the Caribbean island. Though it had no staff in Puerto Rico, the airline arranged hotels and meals there for passengers before flying them to Toronto the next day.
