they crossed almost an entire continent breh

Where did they depart from?

 

[dennis roadman]

Where did they depart from?

southeast brazil to northwest colombia, são paulo to medellin

even with the layover in bolivia, they would have covered a lot of ground on the second leg alone

Mis-phrased that, meant, player on the GOAT brazilian team to not win and a washed manager.

The audio with the pilot
Esto es parte de la conversación entre la torre de control y el piloto - Medellín - El Tiempo

Pilot told Colombia controllers 'no fuel' before crash

In the sometimes chaotic exchange with the air traffic tower, the pilot of the British-built jet could be heard repeatedly requesting authorization to land because of "fuel problems." A female controller explained another plane had been diverted with mechanical problems and had priority, instructing the pilot to wait seven minutes.

As the plane circled in a holding pattern, the pilot grew more desperate. "Complete electrical failure, without fuel," he said in the tense final moments before the plane set off on a four-minute death spiral that ended with it slamming into a mountainside Monday night.

Damn what a horrible way to go

Man, Hearing that junk with the tower makes me feel like this was senseless.

On one hand, I do not know the intricacies of flight patterns and towers; but if a pilot is telling you " we are running low on fuel" I would be doing everything possible to be able to get that plane on the ground safely
