Kevin Brine/iStock(MONTREAL) — An Air Canada Express flight lost a wheel seconds after the plane lifted off the Montreal-Trudeau International Airport runway on Friday.

Passenger video captured sparks and flames coming from the landing gear before the wheel detached.

“I’m currently on a plane that has just lost a wheel,” the passenger posted. “2020 starting off well.”
