Note the comment about Air Zimbabwe having an enviable safety record. That presumably excludes the two Viscount shoot downs and the subsequent murder of the passengers in one of them.

Sounds like a failure of the ground staff at the airport, or can’t they afford them? Seeing as how they have the highest inflation in the world from memory.
Its not limited to the failed economies, even in US airplanes have been colliding with Peccary, Coyotes and even Antelopes. Maybe we should put that down to credit crunch 😀

Reporters hyperbole setting in now, there were five culprits, no news on their fate yet.
