- Aircraft: Embraer EMB-500 Phenom 100

- Phase of flight: Approach and landing

An Embraer Phenom 100 landed on runway 29 at Sao Pedro on 30 October 2020 but could not stop within the remaining distance. It overran, went down an embankment and caught fire, and all four occupants evacuated safely. The investigation inferred that the runway was contaminated and slippery, reducing braking performance.
