A VETERAN flight attendant who was violently flung from a crashing plane has been pictured in her hospital bed for the first time.
Solange Tremblay, a 26-year Air Canada crew member, was hurled more than 320 feet across the runway when Jazz flight 8646 smashed into a fire truck at New York’s LaGuardia Airport on the night of March 22.
The horror impact reportedly catapulted the stewardess from the wreckage, leaving rescuers to discover her lying on the tarmac — still strapped into her jump seat.
Her daughter Sarah Lepine described the terrifying moment in a GoFundMe appeal set up to help with her mum’s medical treatment.
She wrote: “During the crash she was… ejected over 320 feet from the wreckage. She was found still strapped in her jump seat lying on the tarmac.”
Lepine said the long-serving flight attendant suffered catastrophic injuries in the violent crash.
“My mother’s injuries include two shattered legs (open fractures) requiring multiple surgeries where metal plates are needed to repair the damage done to her legs,” she added.
