“It’s all very premature. The only thing we have so far is that there was no communication (from the pilot) with the authorities that an emergency would occur,” said the director of the Center for the Study and Prevention of Aviation Accidents (Cenipa), Brigadier General of the Brazilian Air Force Marcelo Moreno.

The officer added at a press conference that the pilot did not contact any control tower to report the problems, So he hopes that the plane’s already-rescued black boxes might provide some clues about what happened.

“It is too early to say anything. At this point we cannot say whether this was decisive for what happened,” said the Cenipa director, adding that the plane in question was certified to fly in such atmospheric conditions. (glaze).
