While the aviation ministry launched an investigation into the cause of the accident, Ca- nadian businessman H, E. Kent of Guelph, Ont., told of their lucky escape after wading through mud ankle deep. "Everything seemed very nor- mal as we taxied out for take- off. We seemed to be going along normally when all of a sudden the engines cut and we felt the brakes going.

The captain of the plane -- flight TC-861 -- was Capt. Mi- chael Found, a veteran of the Atlantic run. SKIDS OFF RUNWAY He applied brakes, reversed the thrust of his engines and the giant jet skidded approximately 2,000 feet and lumbered off the airport's main runway into the) field, The jet plowed through poles if they could travel tday--ex- cept on stretchers. Besides 90 passengers the plane held an all-Canadian crew of seven. The injured were identified as passengers Mrs. Ellen Lee, about 45, of Toronto, and a Mr. and Mrs. Neshauan, who were being held for x-ray examina- tion and observation, and the stewardess, Hospital authorities refused all information and would not even give the names of the in- jured, But an airline spokesman said Mrs, Lee suffered a con- cussion and stewardess Barbara Dammer had a cut on her arm. RECOVER Three parcels of radioactive material packed in lead contain- ens were in a safe at London Airport today after they were recovered from the damaged plane. An airline. spokesman said they could have had no effect on the plane's instruments. The huge jet abandoned take- off Wednesday night as it neared the end of the runway and careered into the field with- out leaving the ground. Everyone aboard --. including three infants--was out of the plane in 90 seconds but it took jthe airport' perimeter before crashing alongside the old Bath highway. Its undercarriage was ripped off, the fuselage torn open and luggage and freight thrown out throught a gap in the nose. The airport had been closed earlier in the day because of dense fog. Why the DC-8F failed to take off was a question for the avia- tionministry investigators and their officials to determine. TCA itself said it didn't know the answer but engine failure could have been the cause. A TCA spokesman in Mont- jreal said "from what we have |heard, the plane 'bellied' on takeoff."' First on the crash scene were people whose nearby homes were rattled by the crash. to find the crash scene.
