Read what Forest said about the West Coast (of South America). You could fly Los Angeles-Santiago-Buenos Aires. Remember that if one goes directly north from Belem, he ends up in Greenland....and if he goes directly south from Miami, all but a tiny bit of South America is to his east. - Ric Mon, 23 Jul 2007 20:13:48 +0100 http://www.brazzilmag.com/content/view/8483/54/#pc_10271 Uhhh, how exactly are you going to fly from the U.S. to Argentina without flying through Brazilian airspace...It's not like these planes (that were already in flight) could re-fuel in the air to fly around Brazil. - RH Mon, 23 Jul 2007 18:52:50 +0100 http://www.brazzilmag.com/content/view/8483/54/#pc_10262 ....and a guarantee of collusion.....in the corruption practices of your politicians for whom there is always enough budget.....but never enough budget for infrastructures, housing, education and healthcare !!! - ch.c.

The Brazilian Air Force said there was no risk for the planes during the breakdown. Truth in Brazil it seems is more the Truth de Jour. - aes Sun, 22 Jul 2007 13:50:41 +0100 http://www.brazzilmag.com/content/view/8483/54/#pc_10231 so why not devert to another country close to brasil and buss in . fly to argentia , how you ask fly down the west coast you have a radar supported by 4 countries . you could cowboy it and fly down the east coast , by watching the coast line or all the lights at night once you get to fortalaza its all down hill - forest Brown Sun, 22 Jul 2007 11:58:34 +0100 http://www.brazzilmag.com/content/view/8483/54/#pc_10226 Flight 951, coming from New York to São Paulo, returned to the Unites States after two hours in the air after being unable to contact Brazil. The same happened to another American Airlines flight from Washington and still another from Orlando. Continental ended up delaying a flight while waiting for Brazil to repair its faulty control center. Huh??? Fly from NY, Washington and Orlando and can't make contact on the ground with anyone and have to go back?? It's not like it's across the street for god's sake. This country is a joke. - bo Sun, 22 Jul 2007 09:09:45 +0100
