The plane that crashed with the singer Marília Mendonça and four other people, last Friday (5) will be taken to a hangar at Caratinga airport, in Minas Gerais.
No local, Technicians at the Center for Investigation and Prevention of Aeronautical Accidents (Cenipa) will perform a more detailed skill on the aircraft.
Also on Saturday night, the twin engine was removed from the waterfall (and placed on a plot of land next to the waterfall itself). Although the action was scheduled to take place this Sunday (7), the aircraft had to be removed beforehand to prevent a possible flood or the incidence of rain at the site from jeopardizing the work of the expert.
The singer Marília Mendonça died at the age of 26, last Friday. Besides her, died Henrique Ribeiro, producer; Abicieli Silveira Dias Filho, uncle and advisor; Geraldo Martins de Medeiros Junior, pilot of the plane; and Tarcisio Pessoa Viana, co-pilot. The group traveled from Goiania to Caratinga, where Marília would make a presentation.
The bodies of singer Marília Mendonça and her uncle Abicieli Silveira Dias Filho were buried yesterday, at Cemitério Parque Memorial, in Goiânia, in a ceremony for family and friends. The wake took place at the Ginásio Goiânia Arena and was attended by thousands of the singer’s fans.
Investigation
Cenipa investigators were sent to Minas Gerais from Rio de Janeiro, where one of the agency’s regional bases operates. The calculation of FAB seeks to identify the causes of the accident to prevent similar events. The appointment of possible responsibilities will be the responsibility of the police.
At the site, Air Force investigators hear witnesses who can give information about the route. They also photograph the scenes, gather documents and remove parts of the aircraft for analysis. According to the FAB, there is no estimated time for the duration of these first measures. The deadline depends on the complexity of the occurrence.
A Minas Gerais Energy Company (Cemig) he said yesterday that the distribution line hit by the plane with singer Marília Mendonça shortly before the crash is outside the protection zone of the Caratinga airport.
As pointed out by state, the collision with the electrical wiring is one of the causes raised for the accident that killed the five occupants of the aircraft. The wires in the region usually interfere with the landing of planes, to the point that it is even avoided by those who know the area, reported pilots heard by the state.
