Hmmm. One airline seems to have a problem keeping it on the runway when everyone else can, but somehow that's the runway's fault? lol

According to the article, Ottawa is the only major airport in the country with grooved runways. Does this mean if Trans State Airlines has to divert they head back to the US?

And I wonder what the training syllabus looks like for "adequate training about landing on ungrooved runways in Canada". Are those different from ungrooved runways everywhere else in the world? hahah!

Sounds like "adequate training for landing" is more in order.
