The plane, carrying 72 passengers and four crew, initially landed safely from Montreal on Sunday evening - here's how the incident unfolded. Some 41 passengers and crew were taken to hospital - all but nine have since been discharged. Two fire truck officers are in a stable condition in hospital. "We were 100 metres away... it was like the plane got cut in half", a witness tells the BBC. The airport, which is one of the busiest in the US, is expected to remain closed until at least 14:00 ET (18:00 GMT). (BBC)
