From an update on Globo news:




"The plane was skidding, it looked like it was taxiing, I never saw something so ugly" said Luís Santos, working for CTS Security, who was in a black Volkswagen at the gas station during the accident. The siding of the vehicle was marked by debris from the plane. "I could hear the increasing roar of the turbine and the plane kept growing. He passed 'liking' right about where the street electric wires are. When it hit [the building?], everything exploded", added Santos.





"O avião vinha derrapando, parecia que ele estava taxiando, nunca vi um negócio tão feio", disse Luís Santos, da empresa CTS de vigilância e segurança, que estava em um gol preto no posto na hora do acidente. A lateral do veículo ficou marcada por estilhaços da fuselagem do avião.
"Dava para ouvir o barulho da turbina aumentando e o avião crescendo. Ele passou 'lambendo' bem na altura dos fios. Na hora que deu a pancada, explodiu tudo", acrescentou Santos.
