Air Creebec HS748 damaged in a storm?

[MrNosy2]

Reportedly an Air Creebec HS748 C-FPJR was 'blown into a ditch' during a storm at Timmins on July 20, 2017. Can anyone add any more details, any pictures?

You might also keep an eye on this page (mostly quite puerile discussions, however:rolleyes:): Accidents, Incidents & Overdue Aircraft - AVCANADA (http://www.avcanada.ca/forums2/viewforum.php?f=118&sid=0de8e1b090f49060eb1587f8713a182e)

That's not the same incident, gwillie. The one MrNosy2 mentioned happened in Timmins (CYTS) while the aircraft was parked.

Not much info from CADORS:

"During high winds and thunderstorm, an Air Creebec Hawker Siddeley HS 748 Series 2A (C-FPJR) was blown off the ramp into a drainage ditch at the Air Creebec hangar."
