Chapecoense air crash: Leaked tape shows plane 'ran out of fuel'

[Suarez™]

The plane which crashed in Colombia killing most of a Brazilian football side had run out of fuel, according to a leaked audio recording.
A pilot can be heard repeatedly requesting permission to land due to an electric failure and lack of fuel.
Only six of the 77 people on board the plane survived.
The team, Chapecoense, had been due to play a cup final in Medellin on Wednesday evening. Fans instead gathered to pay tribute.
Thousands of people carrying candles and wearing white filled the stadium where Chapecoense was to have played Atletico Nacional.
At the same time, Chapecoense fans held a tearful vigil at their home stadium in Chapeco, Brazil, which was draped in black ribbons. Both stadiums were filled to capacity.

The leaked conversations between the flight crew and a Colombian air traffic controller give a glimpse of the frantic, final moments of the doomed plane.
The pilot and can be heard warning of a "total electric failure" and "lack of fuel".
Just before the tape ends, he says he is flying at an altitude of 9,000ft (2,743m). The plane slammed into a mountainside near the Colombian city of Medellin late on Monday.
