On a Jazz Canadair CRJ-900, registration C-FOJZ performing flight
QK-8485 from Edmonton,AB to Vancouver,BC (Canada) with 58 passengers and 4 crew, the first officer was pilot flying, the captain was conducting a check ride and was pilot monitoring. Upon landing on Vancouver's runway 08L the flight data recorders recorded a vertical acceleration of +2.789G. The aircraft rolled out without further incident and taxied to the apron, but were unable to start the APU. After the flight crew shut the aircraft down they realized one flight attendant had received serious and the other minor injuries in the touch down.
The Canadian TSB reported the flight attendant seated in the aft jump seat during landing received serious injuries, received first aid and was transported to a local hospital. The other flight attendant received minor injuries. The touchdown required a high load landing event (HLLE) inspection, which determined that both main landing gear struts had been bottomed out. The aircraft remained on the ground for 6 days until the HLLE was completed, the subsequent maintenance included replacement of both main gear struts. The aircraft has been returned to service in the meantime.
