Accidents and incidents
- 30 June 1950: a SAVAG Lockheed Model 18 Lodestar registration PP-SAA flying from Porto Alegre to São Borja in bad weather collided against a hill, caught fire and crashed near the location of São Francisco de Assis. All 10 occupants died, including the founder of SAVAG and pilot, Gustavo Kraemer, and Joaquim Pedro Salgado Filho, senator and first Minister of Air Force in Brazil.[3][4]
Access
The airport is located 4 km (2 mi) from downtown São Borja.
gollark: A surprising amount of Steam games are available, though.
gollark: You can also play exciting open-source games like Minetest, Dwarf Fortress and OpenTTD.
gollark: I guess you could have... self-runnable python packages too?```bash#!/bin/shpython3 $0exit```
gollark: Shellscripts execute line-by-line, so if you stick a ZIP on the end and do something like```bash#!/bin/shunzip $0exit```then the shell won't complain about the random binary data at the end of the script.
gollark: I'm not sure if this has much of an actual application, but it's neat. You can do similar stuff with zips to make self-extracting archives.
