The crew was going to attempt a ditching as close as possible to the Los Roques archipelago. Shortly thereafter, radio contact was lost and the plane disappeared from radar.[1] AircraftThe aircraft operating this flight was a Let L-410UVP-E3, registration YV2081, built in Czechoslovakia in 1987. SearchAnother Transaven Let L-410 flew over the area the aircraft was thought to have crashed, but found no trace, other than a spot of liquid on the surface of the water that soon after dissipated.{{citation needed|date=July 2018}} Active sea and air searches were called off without finding any trace of the aircraft.[2] On 12 January 2008, some fishermen found the body of a man 12 kilometres off the coast of Venezuela. After having performed the autopsy, the doctors determined that it was the corpse of the co-pilot, the 37-year-old Osmel Alfredo Avila Otamendi.[3] At a short distance from the place of discovery of the corpse of the co-pilot his life vest was found. In April 2008, a Venezuelan navy vessel, using a sonar, was able to identify the presumed wreckage of an aircraft, located approximately 300 metres deep. The wreckage was recovered, but it didn't belong to the disappeared aircraft. Subsequently, search were suspended.{{citation needed|date=July 2018}} Discovery of the wreckageOn 20 June 2013, more than five years after the accident, the wreckage of the aircraft was located in the sea at a depth of {{convert|970|m|ft}}, nine kilometres south of Los Roques. It was discovered by the US flagship Sea Scout which was working in the area for days. The ship was looking for the wreckage of another crashed aircraft which went down on 4 January 2013.[4] Passengers and crewThe crew consisted of one Venezuelan pilot and a copilot.
