The aircraft involved in the accident in 1989 while still in service with DLT.
As the Brasilia was on approach to Rio Branco, ground controllers granted the flight crew permission to land. The aircraft then entered a rainstorm and shortly after impacted with the ground tail first, 1.5 kilometres (0.93 mi; 0.81 nmi) from the airport. The fuselage broke into three sections and a fire broke out, damaging the airplane beyond repair.[2]
