Terrible news, and my heart goes out to the families of all concerned.

I have flown on First Air a few times. They do a great job flying into some very challenging airports. Getjets - you may note the ski-like apparatus on the front landing gear in the picture you posted. It's a gravel guard, designed to protect the fuselage when operating on short, gravel runways like at Resolute.

As an FYI, this particular aircraft is ex-Air Canada regional. See http://www.airliners.net/photo/NWT-Air/Boeing-737-210C-Adv/0013825/&sid=58a61645fa55fc322c77169b5ceadef8

Very sad weekend here.

It was indeed an awful weekend for aviation, and now just yesterday a plane crashed during the Kansas City air show killing a pilot who flies Delta Air Lines 747 for a living...

Horrible things...
