BAE146 OFF RWY at CYOW
I hear that a Jazz 146 went off the pavement on arrival rwy 07 this afternoon at Ottawa. Very greasy at the time in wet snow with low friction index values. Rwy 07 was still closed for a/c removal when we came in an hour later. I didn't see anything [no time to look around]. Anyone else hear any details?
