The crash of Canadian Pacific Airlines Flight 108
On Friday September 9th, 1949, just outside of a small town north of Quebec City, CA, residents heard a loud explosion. Shortly after, a small plane plummeted from the sky and hit a rocky hillside killing all 23 passengers on board. What seemed from the outside to be a tragic plane crash, ended up being much more. This is the story of Canadian Pacific Airlines Flight 108.
