Aircraft Carrying US Soldiers Make Emergency Landing On A Highway In Uganda by myspnigeria: 6:59pm On Jul 18, 2014
An aircraft carrying U.S. military personnel today has made an emergency landing in the middle of a highway after running out of
fuel, Ugandan police said. The Piper aircraft with eight people on board, including two crew members was returning to Uganda's Entebbe International
Airport when it had to make an emergency landing in Mityana town, some 67 kilometers (about 41 miles) from the Ugandan
capital of Kampala. No one was hurt and the aircraft wasn't damaged, but motor traffic flow was seriously disrupted.
The said aircraft was initially heading to South Sudan but it couldn't land there and had to return to Uganda. It was not immediately clear why the pilot could not land in South Sudan.

Nice dead-stick landing by the pilot. Finding an empty gap in road traffic in which to land, and then setting her down knowing there would be but ONE opportunity to make that landing, took some steady nerves and superb airmanship without question.

After the shooting down of the M17 Malaysian airliner in Ukraine on Thursday, I am glad that the world has not woken up to another aviation tragedy today. Nowadays the news bulletins seem to consist of one tragic event after the other. It seems that everything that can possibly go wrong is going wrong these days.

Make of the aircraft should be Antonov-An model....a soviet era troop carrier though out of commission decades ago, it still is in service at some third world african countries where it has reputation to be very prone to mechanical issues and has been center to all major devastating military aircrashes in the congo basin and rift valley....
