Quebecair Flight 255 was a scheduled flight from Quebec City to Montreal. On March 29, 1979, a Fairchild F-27 registered CF-QBL flying the route crashed after an engine exploded shortly after take off. All three crew and 14 of the 21 passengers died. The crash occurred minutes after it took off. ==Crash== Following takeoff from Jean Lesage International Airport, the flight crew advised the control tower of a problem with their right engine. The plane was given clearance for an emergency landing, and it circled the airport twice, before flying above a restaurant with flames bursting from one engine. The plane had begun the final turn in its landing sequence, and crashed into a hillside. "I heard a loud explosion and rushed out and saw the plane in flames" one witness said. Firemen arrived at the scene within minutes, but it was reported they were "unable to approach the burning wreckage for some time because of the extreme heat." Ambulances had difficulty reaching the accident site because they had to cross a railway line to reach it. "Most of the people were not dead. Several died during the first half-hour after the accident. There were limbs cut off. We had to be careful when we were moving them," one woman told journalists.〔(St. Foy, QB Plane Crash, Mar 1979 | GenDisasters ... Genealogy in Tragedy, Disasters, Fires, Floods )〕
