A Jazz Canadair CRJ-900, registration C-GJAN performing flight QK-8931 from Philadelphia,PA (USA) to Toronto,ON (Canada), was climbing out of Philadelphia when the crew stopped the climb out of runway 09L just before reaching 10,000 feet, declared PAN PAN and decided to return to Philadelphia due to a split elevator. The aircraft landed safely on runway 09R about 40 minutes after departure.
The Canadian TSB reported in addition the crew received a TCAS resolution advisory while returning to Philadelphia.
The aircraft had suffered the same problem just 4 days earlier, see Incident: Jazz CRJ9 at Newark on Sep 9th 2024, split elevator, returned to service on Sep 12th 2024 and was on its 8th sector when the problem re-occurred.
