Was Colombian plane tragedy a deadly mistake? Surviving flight attendant reveals jet 'ran out of fuel' - as aviation experts claim 'hero' pilot was NOT deliberately burning it off before crash

Investigators say it is 'very suspicious' that the plane did not explode on impact as it smashed into a mountain on its way from Bolivia to the Colombian city of Medellin. A surviving flight attendant is believed to have told authorities that the plane, which was carrying 77 passengers and crew, ran out of
fuel minutes before its scheduled landing at Jose Maria Cordova airport. The theory comes after claims that the pilot of the jet Miguel Alejandro Quiroga Murakami (centre and inset with players) had deliberately circled before landing in a bid to burn off or dump fuel and avoid a blast on impact. Six people miraculously survived the crash (left) on Monday night, but the disaster virtually wiped out the up-and-coming Brazilian football team Chapecoense Real whose players were preparing to play in the Copa Sudamerica final.
