| From a lede by 3dc [Daily Mail, where America gets its news] A mysterious unaccounted-for passenger was aboard the Brazilian plane that crashed in a 'death spiral' and killed 62 people, is has been revealed. The plane, operated by regional carrier Voepass, crashed on Friday in a residential area near Sao Paulo, Brazil , killing all passengers and crew members aboard. On Friday Voepass said the plane was carrying 57 passengers and four crew, but on Saturday the firm confirmed another unaccounted-for passenger had been on the flight, putting the number of casualties at 62 - it is unclear whether this additional passenger was simply missed off the manifest or whether they snuck on board. For now, the cause of the crash remains unknown. Metsul, one of Brazil's most respected meteorological companies, said Friday that there were reports of severe icing in Sao Paulo state around the time of the crash. Local media cited experts pointing to that as a potential cause, although others cautioned against jumping to a conclusion, urging to wait for the outcome of the official investigation. Both the plane's 'black boxes' - one with flight data and the other with cockpit audio - were recovered. The air force's center for the investigation and prevention of air accidents began analyzing them at its laboratory in the nation's capital, Brasilia. Airports Minister Silvio Costa Filho said the center was also opening a criminal probe. The airline Voepass and the French-Italian ATR manufacturer are assisting investigations, they said in statements. The crashed plane was bound for Sao Paulo from Cascavel, in the state of Parana, and crashed at around 1.30pm (1630 GMT) in Vinhedo, some 50 miles northwest of Sao Paulo. The aircraft was flying normally until 1.21pm, when it stopped responding to calls, and radar contact was lost at 1.22pm, Brazil's air force said in a statement. The plane did not report any emergency. Videos of the event show that the sky was apparently clear when the plane started spiraling in an unusual circling motion before crashing. |

| #4 I recall MH370 has two mystery passengers as well. That is not the only thing these two flights shared. Like Brazil and its Cancer Scientists, Mh370 had a large group of experts on it as well, a bunch of Super Conductor Savants were flying together too. |
