Historia: Semelhança com o acidente da HELIOS.

[PR-WJI]

Em 1999 nos EUA, um learJet estava voando sem mais manter comunicação com o órgão respectivo. Então enviaram um caça e este viu que as janelas do executivo estavam congeladas. Logo mais o avião caiu devido a uma queda de pressão interna.
(P.S.: Semelhança pois em ambos os acidentes, os corpos entraram em hipotermia.)
