==Flight history==
Mérida, a university and tourist town located high in the Andes mountains, is surrounded by higher terrain with night flights prohibited at the nearby Alberto Carnevalli Airport. On 21 February 2008, Flight 518 was the last scheduled flight out of the airport, departing at about 17:00 local time. On the flight deck was Captain Aldino Garanito Gomez (36), a senior pilot for the airline and flight instructor with more than 5,000 flight hours logged, and First Officer Denis Ferreira Quintal (29).
Shortly after take-off, the ATR 42–300 twin-turboprop slammed into a sheer rock wall called "Indian Face" (Spanish: ''La Cara del Indio''). No distress calls were received from the aircraft prior to impact.〔(Rescuers find Venezuela plane crash black boxes ), Reuters, 24 Feb 2008.
