    Ha Ha no, actually it happened on the ground, on the runway. Nice try though.

    I watch airplane accident docu's all the time on Discovery channel, and know a fair bit about this...the 3 exits, various miscommunications, the back up of air traffic etc, even can picture in my head the recreation of it...but cannot remember where it was.

    Is not North America though.

    You are incorrect. Three incorrect responses, time for the answer. The accident happened at Tenerife Airport in the Canary Islands, which is off the coast of Spain. It was a runway accident, pilot error compounded by poor visibility due to fog, proceeding without proper intructions from the control tower.

    No one stepping up to take a shot at the number of Prime Ministers...so the answer is 22. Ranging from Sir John. A Macdonald our first, to our present Stephen Harper.

    Ruben Carter - What is his nickname?

    Where was he born and raised? And where does he live now?
