The Legacy jet involved in the accident with the Gol Boeing, on September 29, 2006, will be returned to the company Cloudscape, Inc, in the United States. The measure was authorized, on August 27 of this year, by judge Fábio Henrique Fiorenza, of the Federal Court of Sinop, in Mato Grosso. The aircraft's return will be done by the Brazilian Air Force (FAB). The airplane is at Serra do Cachimbo Air Base, in the south of the state of Pará, where it has been since the collision with the Gol aircraft. None of the 154 passengers and crew of the Gol aircraft survived.

According to the Federal Court of Mato Grosso, the pieces related to the cases on the accident, such as the black-box, the T-Cas and transponder, for example, will remain in the power of the Federal Police (PF).

The request for restitution of "seized object" was submitted by the American company on August 13, 2008 and sent to the Federal Prosecutor's Office (MPF) which gave a favorable opinion on the restitution on August 20 of this year.

After the Federal judge's authorization, a dispatch was sent to the Air Force to advise that the aircraft could be returned. The Air Force did not inform when the Legacy will be ready for flight.
