I saw that plane over my house just before the outer marker while I was cooking juicy burgers. Everything normal; plane that is.
It's a plane hard to miss due to it's size and noise.
Landed at 148 kts gnd speed (flightaware)

Air France plane skidoff the runway? - Page 3 - YULAviation
MONTREAL - An Air France Boeing 747 arriving from Paris skidded off the runway at Montreal's Trudeau International airport after it landed Tuesday afternoon.
"The plane overshot the runway when it landed and got stuck in the grass," said Laurent Gingras of Montreal police. "There were no injuries."
Video of the airplane shows no signs of major damage.
Emergency vehicles surrounded the jumbo jet at the airport as crews worked around the aircraft, which was stuck in the grass beside the runway.
Some 500 passengers were on the large-bodied plane, and were being taken off the plane by emergency services.
The airport remains open and television footage showed planes continuing to take off and land.
