When: Oct. 4, 2007
Where: Sao Paulo, Brazil
Who: 8 victims on an executive jet, citizens of Sao Paulo
What: An executive jet crashed into a heavily populated neighborhood of Sao Paulo on Sunday, killing at least eight people and leaving a pile of smoky rubble just months after the city suffered the nation's deadliest air disaster. The plane, a Learjet 35 belonging to a Brazilian air taxi company, slammed into two houses shortly after taking off.
Why: There were no immediate indications that it was related to the Brazilian air traffic chaos including the July 17 crash of a Tam Linhas Aereas SA jetliner. The plane plowed nose first into the blue-collar neighborhood as it apparently tried to return to the airport during cloudy and slightly rainy conditions.
