An Air France flight from Paris to Los Angeles had to make an emergency landing in eastern Canada on Saturday (Sept. 30) after one of the jet’s engines blew out, according to the New York Daily News and other media outlets.
„We heard a big popping sound and the airplane basically dropped and it was trembling. You could definitely tell something was different and it wasn’t just turbulence,“ one passenger told the Daily News.
The plan shook for about 20 minutes but stabilized, and the plane continued flying for another two hours before making the landing, according to the report.

According to Fox News, Air France released a statement praising the flight and cabin crew who „handled this serious incident perfectly.“
