The right landing gear broke during a takeoff run on Oct 23. The aircraft is likely a write-off.

Hmmm, not likely any CPCP maintenance schedule used either.
Bad news all 'round if this is the case, with these old birds.

According to the brazilian notice it had more than 100.000 flight hours until the accident.
