An Air Canada Airbus A320-200, registration C-FTJQ performing flight AC-926 from Montreal Trudeau,QC (Canada) to Fort Lauderdale,FL (USA), was enroute at FL360 about 170nm south of Montreal about 30 minutes into the flight, when the crew requested to return to Montreal and reported problems with the flight controls. The airplane was on final approach to runway 06L about one nautical mile before touchdown, when the crew declared emergency and requested emergency services to standby. The airplane continued for a safe touch down and stopped on the runway for about 10 minutes. The crew reported, that they had experienced "severe mechanical turbulence" and had lost control of the airplane momentarily.
A replacement Airbus A320-200 registration C-FFWI resumed the flight and reached Fort Lauderdale with a delay of 3:45 hours.
