The plane reportedly had a fuel problem. The crash took place near Medellin, Colombia, on the side of a mountain.
During a 12 minute recording, the pilot said
the plane had experienced, "total electrical failure."
The theory that the plane crashed without fuel was supported by
the fact there was no explosion from the impact.
The Chapecoense team had risen in the ranks and was known for
representing a scrappy industrial city in Brazil. They were heading to the
finals of the Copa Sudamericana tournament. The tournament is one of South
America’s most important tournaments.
There were six survivors from the collision. Three were players,
two were crew members and one was a journalist.
Good job!
