A simulated plane crash is happening at the Victoria International Airport from 9 to noon Thursday.
"We're essentially simulating a plane crash of a Boeing 737 here on airport property," says James Bogusz, the Vice President of Operations & Development at the airport. He say emergency crews from the airport and local municipalities will be practising their response.
Bogusz says it won't be that visible from the main terminal, but you'll notice if from some vantage points such as the road between the terminal and West Saanich Road.
Operations at the airport will not be affected.
