Sao Paulo also released a statement confirming that they were renting the blimp and that they had been granted permission to fly the airship on Wednesday night.
They said: “Sao Paulo FC regrets the incident that occurred with the airship leased from Airship do Brasil Industria e Servicos Aereos SA. The company had already provided this same service to the Club during the Copa do Brasil final in 2023, without any incidents.
“The aircraft was undergoing a test this morning in preparation for the night flight, previously authorized by ANAC (National Civil Aviation Agency), which was scheduled for the stadium region. The Club informs that, fortunately, there were no serious injuries and is providing all necessary support to the crew and others involved.”
