@hardwood, I thought the pilot should have automatically known the correct altitude she should have been at? Is the navigation in this plane model manual? (I'm not implying anything, just ignorant in these matter).


Only the black box or voice recorder will tell us what really happened, hoping the plane had one.

The rescue mission was unacceptably slow. Even if there were survivors, they couldn't have lasted the 40 hours of pain and numbing cold.

Shithole country!!


How were they to spot the plane while the peaks were covered by clouds?



Am not sure how, but whatever technologies they could get. Use drones with night vision or metal detectors or whatever could accelerate the process.

If the same crash happened in another country, do you think it would have taken 40 hours? Even motorbikes have trackers nowadays.

All I want, if ever am in a plane and it crashes, I should be found in the shortest time possible, dead or alive.

I do not understand how small minded our media fellas are. They show no respect to the bereaved families. Capitalfm covered the wailing of relatives as a news item airing the recordings.

It's not the media. That's how our society is.

I don't think it is the society. Someone had to ask in public for respect to be shown. I remember when a KQ plane clashed in Cote de Voire, a cameraman was busy chasing a wailing relative and there was an outcry about the incident. Surely the media has a role to play on decorum. The editors should be ashamed.

The instruments should have alerted her on terrain proximity. Either equipment wasn't working or the attempt to fly higher failed. We need a serious investigation.

Sad. They died doing what they loved best. Aparently on the fateful day they had flown to maasai mara, Homa Bay, and then to Kitale. Such a big loss.

The crash was terrible. Bodies decapitated, dismembered, legs torn off etc. Only consolation is that it happened in a flash and thus reduced victims suffering.

Horrible way to die. At times media need to censor some of the details in respect for the departed.

They are reporting with misplaced confidence that Elephant is the highest point on the Aberdares.....Mt Satima is.

Initial investigations into the plane crash that killed 10 people on Tuesday evening points to a possibility that the ill-fated aircraft may have been misled by the control tower in Nairobi to plunge into a doomed flight path.

After the wreckage of the FlySax aircraft was located yesterday morning strewn in dense mountainous jungle in Aberdare Ranges, emerging details last evening indicated its two pilots may have been led to fly low in zero visibility and crash into the side of the mountain.

Multiple reports from Kenya Wildlife Service, Kenya Police, aviation authorities and various security agencies said there was high possibility the 28-year-old pilot, Captain Barbara Wangeci Kamau who was on the controls, was guided to fly at 11,000 feet instead of 15,000 feet above sea level that would have been the requisite height to clear the brow of the rugged ranges on the flight path.

If this is true, someone should resign. KCAA is the organization that is delaying the status of flying direct to the US.

We Kenyans have such low standards for accountability. And if you know Kenyans, nobody will resign from this.

In a civilized country that's not a sheet-hole, the person would be fired for negligence, investigated and possibly charged with manslaughter depending on the results of the investigation.

The entire department would be overhauled and those who remain would be sent for retraining.
