Regional carrier Voepass said the plane, bound for Sao Paulo’s international airport, took off from Cascavel, in the state of Parana, and crashed at around 1:30 p.m. (1630 GMT) in the town of Vinhedo, some 50 miles (80 km) northwest of Sao Paulo.
City officials at Valinhos, near Vinhedo, said there were no survivors and only one home in the local condominium complex had been damaged while none of the residents were hurt.
Authorities did not immediately say what had caused the crash, though Sao Paulo state official Guilherme Derrite said the plane’s “black box” had been recovered and that it seemed to be intact.
