AIR CANADA IS LOOKING A LITTLE MORE IMPRESSIVE
An EgyptAir flight that crashed en route to Cairo, killing all 66 people on board, was brought down by pilot Mohamed Said Shoukair who had a cigarette in the cockpit that ignited oxygen leaking from an oxygen mask. Egyptian authorities initially said that the plane crash was the result of a terrorist attack, claiming that traces of explosives had been found on the bodies of the victims, but those allegations were widely discredited.
Egypt has refused to release its own report into the crash and in 2018 rejected BEA’s initial findings, dismissing them as 'unfounded.'
