Runway 05/23 (length 2005m/6580 feet) was closed until the aircraft could be towed off the runway about 4 hours later.
On Nov 6th 2012 the French BEA reported in their weekly bulletin quoting Brazilian Authorities, that the right hand engine failed in the initial climb at about 400 feet, the left hand engine showed variations in torque and parameters while on downwind and the crew shut it down, the BEA however annotated that a commanded shut down has not yet been confirmed. The aircraft touched down on the runway but blew a number of tyres causing the runway to be closed for some time.
On Mar 30th 2013 the NTSB reported that the crew proceeded to shut down the left hand engine when it failed on the downwind leg.
