Winter in America is a time when icy conditions see cars regularly sliding off roads and, as the passengers of this American Eagle jet found, aircraft are not immune. American flight AA4125 was traveling from Greensboro, North Carolina,  to Chicago O'Hare when it took an unplanned detour off the runway Monday.

According to The Aviation Herald, the aircraft was substantially damaged but there were no injuries and the 38 passengers and three crew seemed to take the incident in their stride.
