A passenger plane carrying 62 people crashed on Friday outside São Paulo, Brazil, killing all onboard, according to the Brazilian authorities.
The airline operating the flight, VoePass, said that Flight 2283 had crashed in the Brazilian city of Vinhedo, near its destination, São Paulo. The flight had taken off from Cascavel, Brazil, about 450 miles away, for a nearly two-hour scheduled flight that VoePass has been operating daily.
According to FlightRadar24, a provider of flight data, the plane was an ATR 72, a twin-engine regional turboprop made by ATR, a joint venture of two European aerospace manufacturers, Airbus and Leonardo. VoePass used the same plane to fly from São Paulo to Cascavel earlier on Friday, according to FlightRadar24 data.
