Workers are trying to recover the bodies of the people that died after one of the TAM Airlines Airbus A320 crashed on Tuesday at Brazil’s busiest airport. Rescuers had pulled dozens of bodies out, as the rate of more bodies to be found increases. There is to be said that more than 200 people died in the terrible accident.
The airplane was trying to land in a driving rainstorm, when it crashed into a airline building and gas station and exploded immediately after the struck killing everyone on board. There were 186 people in the plane but they do not know exactly how many people were in the actual building where the airplane crashed. Friends and relatives of the victims can not believe what has happened. Many people were present and witnessed when the plane slide on a major road
and hit the building. “We saw the plane go straight down the runway,” said witness Paulo Barros. “ It didn’t managed to stop and went into the avenue. It went by so fast that we thought it was taking off.”
There is no possible chance that anyone on board could survived, authorities said. Recovering the bodies was going to be hard work because the intense fire caused massive destruction that reached 1,800 degrees Fahrenheit (1000 C), officials said. Investigators are trying to find out
why the airport reopened the resurfaced runaway that had been closed for several weeks for repairs.
All the possible causes of such a tremendous loss of life does not heal the tremendous pain of all the victim’s family and friends. Many believe that there is a reason for the crash and the airline or airport is responsible for the loss of so many lives in this horrible tragedy.
