Death

Zavascki was killed in an air disaster in Paraty, Rio de Janeiro on 19 January 2017. Official enquiries into the crash began on 20 January[5] and the cockpit voice recorder was recovered. Also killed were four other people on board, including the pilot, and Carlos Alberto Fernandes Filgueiras, a partner in BTG Pactual, whose president, André Esteves, had been arrested in the Operation Car Wash investigation.[6] More than two hundred politicians and business people were possibly implicated in a graft scheme that Zavascki was investigating.[7]

Final Investigation Results

On 22.01.2018, the Aeronautical Accidents Investigation and Prevention Center (Centro de Investigação e Prevenção de Acidentes Aeronáuticos, CENIPA) presented their final report. The conclusion was that there was no shortage of kerosene. Apparently the accident was caused by three major factors:[8][9]

  • Bad visual climate conditions. At the time of the accident the horizontal visibility was 1500 meters and the rainfall was 25 mm/h.
  • Cultural practices of the pilots: the investigations found that several pilots who fly in this region rely heavily on their experience and don't follow strict security procedures, including informal practices which inhibit an adequate analysis of the risks involved in this specific landing procedure.
  • Spatial disorientation: as a consequence of the bad visibility, the flight curve executed, the low level above the sea and the stress of the pilot, he probably lost control of the plane.
gollark: So clearly language needs this.
gollark: For example, "WiFi" is capable of automatically choosing bitrates based on the signal level being received.
gollark: So this suggests that language needs a mechanism to negotiate higher bitrates, like most communications/radio-y protocols.
gollark: Also, you have to pay more attention because you cannot look back if you miss things.
gollark: Oh, that *wasn't* LyricLy?
