Terminal B was largely empty Monday morning as the airport was under a ground-stop order while federal investigators combed the scene. 
Flights began again shortly after 2 p.m., operating on runway 13/31 while investigators continued to examine the wreckage on runway 4/22. 
Two pilots aboard an Air Canada jet inbound from Montreal died in the crash after the Mitsubishi CRJ-900 they were landing collided with a Port Authority fire truck that had been given clearance to cross the runway. 
The airport closure left Gotham with only two major international airports Monday — and unrelated incidents slowed some travel into and out of Newark Airport as well. 
The control tower at Newark was evacuated around 7:30 a.m. 
Monday morning after reports of a “burning smell” from one of the facility’s elevators, an FAA spokesperson told the Daily News. 
The resulting ground-stop ended after crews returned to the tower an hour later. 
Mild delays persisted at Newark mid-morning after reports of a passenger with a medical emergency arriving at the airport. 
Flights into and out of Kennedy Airport remained largely on time.
