The crash of an MK Airlines cargo plane in Halifax on Oct. 14, 2004 , heightened concerns about crew fatigue and inadequate training.
Seven crew members — David Lamb , Michael Thornycroft , Gary Keogh , Steven Hooper , Peter Launder , Mario Zahn and Christopher Strydom — died in the crash.
The fuel-laden Boeing 747 crashed during takeoff, breaking into pieces and lighting up the early morning sky.
The sole recommendation from the report called on Transport Canada to create a takeoff monitoring system.
Stricter safety rules have been brought in for Canadian pilots of large aircraft since the crash.
The Canadian Press asked Transport Canada what it is doing to ensure foreign cargo planes landing in Canada have crew on board who are Canadian standards to prevent fatigue.
