(Reuters) - A safety warning system went off in a Delta Air Lines regional jet before it landed and flipped belly-up at Canada's largest airport in February, indicating a fast rate of descent, the country's Transportation Safety Board (TSB) said on Thursday in a preliminary report on the accident.

Despite nearly two dozen injured passengers, none of the 80 people died on board flight DL4819, a CRJ900 jet operated by Delta's Endeavor Air subsidiary from Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport.
