Crashed in sea after engine failure. 1°Ten Av André Roberto de Oliveira Neves killed and 2°Ten Av Ricardo Vargas de Carvalho Espósito ejected. The decision in manobrate the aircraft to the Boa Viagem beach sea avoided that the AT-26 Xavante falled under the people that enjoying the Carnival at Salvador. The aircraft sank in depth of 10 meters. The force of the impact of the Xavante fighter jet on the sea was too strong to the point of breaking the seat belts of the eject seat on which Lieutenant Neves was, contributing to the death of that.
