That was an unforgatable day wasn´t it Bruno? A Sunday has never been so rainy as 6th april 2003. FOR was closed for VFR operations... The great PP-VPK was one of the few aircrafts that could complete its aproach and finaly land. Before its landing, we saw Vasp´s A300, a TAM´s A320 and some others going around, due to the heavy rain. Some pilots reported to the tower, that they found heavy turbulence on final, and also wind shear! A lot of flights were diverted to Recife, Natal and São Luis... Very rare kind of weather in Fortaleza...
