"Rice is in the Middle East and there was no immediate response to the letter. However, the State Department said if the pilots were allowed to leave and were later charged, there is an extradition treaty between the two countries. Spokesman Tom Casey said confiscating passports is standard...
BAF should have provided 2000 foot separation to aircraft they were in communication with. Why is there not a BIG question as to why the 737 was not informed about an aircraft that was at the same alt. as the the 737. THE BAF IS TRYING TO SCAPEGOAT A CREW, simple as that!!
The AD states the EMB 135bj, I know some may suspect Joe Sharkey had a bias, but at joesharkey.com you can read the AD and it INCLUDES the Legacy. And this......

No, they should be back at home last month. The US and brazil have an extradition treaty. It was an accident.
One more thing, I am curious why the brazilian (air force) controllers tried to assign an RVSM altitude to an airplane the were only getting a primary radar return from?? The ATC tapes...
Brazilian reporter's quote
Unbelievable....they equate an accident with the worst terroist attack in history.
"There is a sense of mourning in the country," Vieira said. "After September 11, the American people were looking for someone to blame. After Brazil's worst air disaster, it is a...
From the AD......
Request To Revise Compliance Time Empresa Brasileira de Aeronautica S.A. (EMBRAER) requests that we extend the compliance time for the AFM revision from 5 to 30 days. EMBRAER asserts that the loss of the transponder does not pose so great of a hazard to justify such an urgent...
The article was released in ,and came out of Rio, the hindu times just reported a canned press release. It was reported in many other news papers, the times just happend to be the first one on a google search.
That is speculation from an unreliable source. Mr. Pereira is only the head of the airport authority. Read the artilce below, a controller supervisor (who wished to remain anonymous) stated otherwise.

Hey ****************************** knuckle,
We don't sign notes for recurrent...and...unless you work for JR or PN you should keep your pie hole shut. It's obvious you want to bad mouth our CP or DO, but you don't have the sack to do it.......so you go after a pilot who is one of the best...
Unless you guys get $75,000 for a first year 60 captain, it would not be a pay raise to adopt JR's pay. This is NOT including per diem. With minimal effort, I manage to make a few hundred or more a month with the per diem, some guys make much more.......conclusion....most of our 60 captains can...
Sad. There are many in this profession that don't belong. As pilots we are bound together, now matter who we fly for. Your words make it glaringly obvious that you don't belong. Have some respect and please stop making yourself look so childish.

Peace and prayers to all involved
Pay. 26500 for f/o 36500 for capt. This is for Lears and king air.
6 on 2 off, unless they call you ahead of time or you answer the phone on a day off.
Last I knew they had 4 airplanes and 7 pilots.....do the math.
All around a bunch of bad apples over there.
Delta is going to be hard pressed to crew any new airplanes with the remaining furloughed pilots. Of the 461 pilots not offered recall, only 85 are on the short notice recall list. Maybe they will announce a new hire coordinator this winter or sooner.

There is Nothing more lame than civilian pilots (myself included) calling pilots "drivers".
Everyone who does it........PLEASE STOP IT, it's embarassing to yourself. I'm sure I say dumb stuff all the time, but you guys need to stop using a military term to describe what type of FAR part 25...
