An Air France plane burst into flames at Toronto's Pearson airport, but all 309 people aboard survived in what officials have called a "miracle". Flight 358 from Paris burned for more than two hours after the crash landing in bad weather at 1603 (2003 GMT), BBC reported. "We were really, really scared the plane would blow up," passenger Olivier Dubois told a Canadian TV station. Some 24 people aboard the plane have been treated for minor injuries.
