African E-190 Crash Kills 33 - AVweb

Searchers have found the burned wreck of a Mozambique Airlines (LAM) Embraer E-190 in a remote area of Namibia and confirmed that all 33 aboard were killed in the crash. The aircraft, which was delivered in 2012 and is the newest in the airline's fleet, was on a flight from Maputo, Mozambique to Luanda, Angola. Last reported contact was about 1:30 p.m. local time, about two hours into the four-hour flight, when the crew reported they were flying in heavy rain. It was at first thought the crew might have diverted to a nearby field to wait out the weather.
