S15E7 Carnage in Sao Paulo (TAM Transportes Aéreos Regionais Flight 402)

On October 31, 1996, TAM Transportes Aéreos Regionais Flight 402 tragically plummets just moments after departing from São Paulo–Congonhas Airport, crashing into a crowded neighborhood. The disaster claims the lives of all 96 passengers and crew members aboard, along with 3 individuals on the ground. Investigators later determined that the accident was caused by an unexpected activation of a malfunctioning thrust reverser on the right engine, leading to this catastrophic event.
