CHILLING LAST WORDS OF PILOTS OF CRASHED BRAZIL PLANE REVEALED. (PHOTO).



Chilling last words of pilots of crashed Brazil plane revealed


The black box recording from a Brazilian plane that crashed killing all 62 people on board reveals the last words from the pilots.

 

Investigators now have the full transcript of the cockpit audio from the Voepass ATR 72 twin-engine turboprop which plunged from the sky in the city of Vinhedo last week.


The two-hour recording indicates the co-pilot noticed a steep loss of altitude around a minute before the crash, according to TV Globo.


He then asked the pilot what was going on and said the aircraft needed "more power" to be stabilised.


The pilots noted a steep loss of altitude in the minute before the plane hit the ground. The recording also captured screaming of those on board.


Flight tracker website FlightRadar24 noted the plane's transponder recorded a vertical speed of between 8,000 and 24,000 feet per minute in its final 60 seconds in the air.


 

Brazil’s air accident investigation centre Cenipa did not comment on the contents of the TV Globo report.

 

The plane, an ATR-72 turboprop, was bound for Sao Paulo from Cascavel, in the southern state of Parana, when it crashed at around 1.30pm in Vinhedo, some 50 miles northwest of Sao Paulo.

 

The crash killed all on board but no one on the ground was hurt.

 

Video shared on social media showed the plane spinning out of control as it plunged down behind a cluster of trees near houses, sending a large plume of black smoke into the air.
