BBC, "US pilots charged in Brazil crash"
The Brazilian authorities have charged two United States pilots with endangering air safety following the country's worst aviation disaster. Joseph Lepore, 42, and Jan Paladino, 34, face trial over the crash in September, in which 154 people died.
The accident occurred when the private jet they were flying collided with a Brazilian passenger plane. The private jet was damaged but landed safely. The Gol Airlines passenger plane crashed with no survivors.
The two US pilots have denied responsibility for the crash.
