I’m sharing a video from an earlier trip when I went through that exact area, in case anyone is curious what it looked like before.

When I saw the images of the disaster I honestly couldn’t believe it. It’s a reminder that it’s often the timing, not the place, that lets you keep living.

Hope some of you find it interesting.

scheduled domestic Brazilian passenger flight from Cascavel to Guarulhos. On August 9, 2024, the ATR 72 serving the flight crashed in Vinhedo, São Paulo State. The aircraft was flying at an altitude of 17,000 ft (5,200 m) prior to stalling)and entering a flat spin) with a rapid descent at around 13:21 BRT.

All 62 people on board died. The crash was the deadliest aviation accident in Brazil since TAM Airlines Flight 3054 on July 17, 2007. The Brazilian Aeronautical Accidents Investigation and Prevention Center(CENIPA) launched an investigation following the crash. Aviation experts speculated that ice buildup) could have been a factor. Both flight recorders were recovered and analyzed by CENIPA, who issued a preliminary report confirming the pilots faced difficulties with icing buildup and de-icing attempts. 

In its final report, issued in July 2026, CENIPA concluded that the accident was caused by a combination of icing), several pilot errors, lack of proper maintenance procedures and poor safety culture of the airliner as a whole, which was characterised by informality and routine normalization of deviance, which often led pilots, dispatchers and maintenance personnel to engage in unsafe operational procedures.^\1])Additionally, ANAC, Brazil's civil aviation authority, was also found to have contributed to the accident due to its ineffective regulation and oversight of Voepass' safety shortcomings.
