Narrative:
The aircraft took off from Jacarepaguá Airport (SBRJ) at 15:45 LT, with a pilot and 2 passengers, bound for Campo de Marte (SBMT), where it was supposed to land at 17:30 LT. The pilot's last contact with the ATC was made at around 16:10 LT, when he was flying over the Joatinga region – in the coastal city of Ubatuba – when the pilot asked the ATC to fly at 4,500 ft, due to bad weather conditions.
After that, there was no more contact between the pilot and the ATC, and the aircraft is still missing today.
