The jet was scheduled to operate flight LA4640 the short 260-mile domestic flight from Sao Paulo (GRU) to Sao Jose Do Rio Preto (SJP) as you might notice from looking at the map of the flight While on approach to Sao Jose Do Rio Preto the pilots reported a GPS mismatch (meaning the info on their GPS didn’t match up with what they were expecting) The pilots informed the Sao Jose air traffic controller that they were beginning their RNAV approach procedures for the airport (RNAV stands for “area navigation,” and it’s a type of approach procedure using instruments) the Sao Jose air traffic controller told the pilots to contact the approach frequency and instead called the Sao Jose air traffic controller again informing that they were doing a 360 degree turn to descend and lose altitude The controller again told the pilots to contact the approach frequency stating they were busy with the approach and had the airport in sight they were approaching the completely wrong airport They were actually lining up to land at Catanduva Aerodrome the airport they were lining up at was only a small general aviation airport While the runway at their intended destination was 5,381 feet long the runway they were lining up with was only 3,232 feet long At this point the air traffic controller advised that they were approaching the wrong airport At an altitude of 1,000 feet above ground level It’s rather alarming when two commercial airline pilots almost land a jet full of passengers at the wrong airport quite a distance from their intended destination I’m sure an investigation will be performed based on the communication and the flight path: Every once in a while there’s a story about pilots nearly landing on a taxiway rather than a runway or landing at an airport nearby to their intended destination this has to be one of the most extreme stories we’ve seen as these two cities aren’t even that close to one another a LATAM Airbus A320 operating a short flight nearly landed at the wrong airport The pilots lined up to land at an airport about 60km from their intended destination and only executed a go around 1,000 feet above the ground when you consider how many signs were clearly ignored for something like this to happen At least this was caught before the plane touched down because there could’ve been a very different ending What do you make of this LATAM A320 incident Δdocument.getElementById( "ak_js_1" ).setAttribute( "value" The clip of the ATC recordings you posted has them speaking not in English I thought all ATC communications were in English globally ATC comms are in english only when there are international flights That reminds me of a PanAm flight from LHR to SFO I did as a kid I had the habit to ask the pilots after landing if I could have the flight map for collection purposes they usually had a map on which they circled the ways points and destination airport Also the PanAm captain was happy to share .. I found out that they planned for LHR to SJC .. https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/ct-xpm-1991-12-23-9104250064-story.html 25 + years ago an airliner bound for RAP landed instead seven miles beyond at Ellsworth AFB They mistook 13,500 ft rwy 31 for 8,700 ft 32 why are all those B-52s here at the municipal airport??"

Gone is the heartthrob of “Westworld,” the dashing Castro in the “Che” duo of films the much-hated Paulo from “Lost,” and the monstrous Xerxes from the “300” graphic novel adaptations With the easy narcissism and manipulation of so many oppressors Luca tells the young men that they owe him for their travel for the crummy gruel they eat three times a day for the gloves they have to wear while handling scrap metal “You’re lucky I keep track of everything,” Luca says with faux concern Moratto’s work is very much in conversation with those predecessors both in its overall narrative and in its protagonists Mateus and Luca As the two men warily circle around each other their animosity morphs into a form of begrudging respect and unintentional loyalty Now playing in select theaters and available on Netflix on November 11th.  Roxana Hadadi is a film, television, and pop culture critic. She holds an MA in literature and lives outside Baltimore, Maryland. In 2016, Brazil, Colombia, and Peru reported confirmed cases of yellow fever. Brazil confirmed six human yellow fever cases in 2016 and the number of epizootics, especially in the state of São Paulo, increased considerably during 2016 in comparison to previous years. From the beginning of 2016 until 12 December 2016 the state of São Paulo reported 163 epizootics in non-human primates (NHP) with a total of 227 affected animals. To date, a total of 16 epizootics (corresponding to 24 NHPs) were confirmed and 35 were discarded. The remaining epizootics are under investigation. The São Paulo municipalities with confirmed epizootics for yellow fever are Ribeirão Preto (Jaboticabal, Monte Alto, and Ribeirão Preto); Barretos (Cajobi and Severínea), and São José do Rio Preto (Pindorama, Potirendaba, Catanduva, Ibira, Adolfo, Catiguá, and São José do Rio Preto). In addition, on 4 January 2017, the Fernandopolis Secretary of Health, also in the state of São Paulo, confirmed the death of a NHP infected by yellow fever. The animal wasfound on 8 December in an area located between São Vicente de Paulo and Recanto do Tamburi. In Colombia, from EW 1 to EW 52 of 2016, 12 cases of jungle yellow fever were reported, 7 laboratory confirmed and 5 probable. The 7 confirmed cases are male, 57% of them are between 20 and 29 years of age. Out of the 7 confirmed cases, six died (case fatality rate of 85.7%). As indicated in the Yellow Fever Epidemiological Update of 14 December 216, the confirmation of cases in Vichada Department (border with Venezuela), in Chocó Department (border with Panama), and in Guainía Department (border with Venezuela and Brazil), represents a risk of circulation of the virus to those bordering countries, especially in areas where they share the same ecosystem. In Peru, up to EW 51 of 2016, 80 cases of jungle yellow fever were reported, of which 62 were confirmed, and 18 classified as probable, including 26 deaths. Of the 25 departments in Peru, cases were reported in 10, with Junín being the department that reported the highest number of confirmed and probable cases (52 cases). The number of confirmed and probable cases reported in Peru between EW 1 to EW 51 of 2016, exceeds the number of cases (confirmed and probable) reported in the previous 9 years.
