Fernandópolis, Brazil – November 14, 2024
A tragic accident occurred on Thursday involving an Air Tractor AT-602
aircraft registered as PP-PLR, operated by Fama Aviação Agrícola Ltda. The
agricultural plane, which was newly manufactured in 2024 (MSN: 602-1376),
crashed under unknown circumstances while performing an aerial operation in
Fernandópolis, São Paulo. Unfortunately, the sole occupant of the aircraft,
the pilot, was killed in the crash.
The accident happened during the manoeuvring phase of an agricultural
operation. Witnesses reported that the cropduster had flown over the
designated area four times before the crash. The exact cause of the accident
remains unclear at this time.
The aircraft was destroyed upon impact, marking a devastating loss for both
the operator and the community. No other injuries or fatalities were reported
on the ground.
Brazil's CENIPA (Centro de Investigação e Prevenção de Acidentes Aeronáuticos)
has initiated an investigation into the incident, although details so far are
limited, with most information currently sourced from news outlets and social
media.
This unfortunate event highlights the risks associated with aerial
agricultural operations and has prompted an outpouring of condolences for the
pilot's family.
