Prosecutors try to close Sao Paulo airport
A TAM jet pulled out of an attempted landing today at Sao Paulo’s Congonhas airport, and federal prosecutors sought a court order to shut the entire airport - Brazil’s busiest – until the investigation into this week’s crash that killed at least 189 people is completed.
Video of the crash released by the air force last night appears to show TAM Flight 3054 from Porto Alegre coming in much faster than other planes landing at the same period on the notoriously short runway.
