The crew of the plane that crashed in Brazil in August had reported problems with the de-icing system, according to the investigation report. Although the preliminary report states that the conditions were “very icy”, the report does not indicate the actual cause of the crash.
All 62 people on board died. It is Brazil’s deadliest plane crash in 17 years.
On August 9, the propeller turbine plane of the Voepass company fell in a residential area of the city of Vinhedo. Vinhedo is located approximately 80 kilometers northwest of Brazil’s financial center, Sao Paulo.
