Kurylo told CTV News she is happy that she was able to walk away from the incident.

She is quoted by CTV as saying, "Once we landed, we were driving for a bit. It was really, really bumping and I looked back and the tires were all shredded up and flapping. All of a sudden something came crashing through my window and I got hit in the head. ... I feel so lucky and blessed to have walked away with what I walked away with.”

The aircraft was a Bombardier Q-400.
