poor souls, must of been horrific the last moments, they had time to send a distress call, and circle losing fuel before crash landing .
thing is with domestic flights in South America like in Asia they buy old planes of us in Europe what we can't use anymore under strict air safety laws.
Ive never been comfortable flying on them over the years back packing budget flights etc. its gamble, you're certainly not as safe as you would be flying in Europe where planes are constantly checked and maintained.
