Brazilian TV network GloboNews aired aerial footage of a burning plane wreckage, with smoke rising from the remains of the fuselage. Additional video captured the plane descending vertically, spiraling as it fell.
A local resident, Ana Lucia, who witnessed the crash, shared her experience with reporters. "I thought it was going to fall in our yard," she said. "It was terrifying, but thankfully, no one on the ground was hurt. It seems that the 62 people on the plane were the real victims."
The crash happened in the Capela neighborhood, which is far from the city center. The city itself has
about 77,000 residents.
At an event in southern Brazil, President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva paused to share the tragic news, asking the crowd to observe a minute of silence.
At Guarulhos airport, VoePass staff were informing and supporting the victims' families in a private room, according to the Associated Press. However, they didn’t specify the exact number of victims.
Aviation expert and former pilot Arthur Rosenberg analyzed the footage and suggested that the plane might have stalled midair. "A stall happens when the plane isn’t moving fast enough to maintain lift," he explained on Fox News. "The sound indicates that there might have been an issue with one or both engines."
Radar data showed a "rapid descent," possibly due to engine failure or another malfunction, Rosenberg noted. "It looked like it dropped 17,000 feet in about two minutes."
According to FlightRadar24, the aircraft was an ATR 72-500 twin-engine turboprop, commonly used for shorter flights. VOEPASS did not immediately confirm this.
The plane's manufacturer, ATR, a French-Italian company, stated that its specialists are fully involved in supporting both the investigation and the airline.
Officials have recovered the plane's black box, or flight data recorder, which will be crucial in determining what happened.
