Plane crash that killed Marília Mendonça turns 1 year today

Police suspect a human error in an accident that killed Marília Mendonça.


This Saturday (5th) marks one year since the accident that killed Marília Mendonça and four other people in Caratinga, Minas Gerais. The Civil Police investigations have not yet been concluded, but the agency has already ruled out the weather conditions of the day and suspicion of human error in the accident as the cause of the aircraft crash.


The Police also cited the signs from Cemig, the Minas Gerais Energy Company. The plane, before crashing, hit the wiring. But according to police, the signage was not mandatory, as the power towers were outside the airfield's protection zone.

The main line of investigation is human error, as the pilot did not follow the recommended landing pattern for the Caratinga airfield. But the conclusion of the investigation still depends on reports from CENIPA, the Center for Investigation and Prevention of Aeronautical Accidents, which will still indicate whether there is a mechanical failure in the aircraft.

According to delegate Ivan Lopes Sales, testimonies indicate that the pilot did not perform the maneuver that was expected. “He left the airfield protection zone to make this landing. It is a factor that may have influenced the fall,” he says.
