Nice one from you AutoJoshNG, but I will tell you with so much fact that some "Planes" have been crashing in Benin, Edo State.

This "Planes" do take off at night and some unlucky crash in the morning.
The one that happened in Sakponbà road 1932 claimed the life of a female "pilot"
After taking off from the busiest Coven International Airport, She crashed the beautiful "Plantain Leaf Plane" while trying to land but was stopped by those high tension wires at the busy Sakponbà road.

We also have similar incident of illegal landing by one popular "pilot" He complained that the fuel got finished mid air, which landed him in a very sharp electric bulb wire owned by Mountain of Fire Church.

I didn't come to die in Nairaland

I love that name "DC 10"

Built by McDonnell Douglas. They were bought over by Boeing if I'm correct

I supply Good quality diesel (AGO) in abuja and its environs, kindly contact me for price negotiations as the price of the product fluctuates.

See my ancestor investigating air crash site in full white Babbar Riga.

The 1969 crash was a BOAC VC-10 airplane. I remember it because my father had gone to the airport to pick my mum up and he watched the plane come in, crash and burst into flames.

He came home sad because he believed my mum was a victim and talked about the crash. Then a telegram was delivered which stated that she did not take the flight and would be coming home later.

Camera no dey naija then?

May we not be a victim of those flying caskets..




Modernized as planes.

Somehow they will find a way of blaming IGBO

She was very lucky

since the taking off and landing of plane is the most dangerous part of air travel, all passengers should be given this cloth.
Take off and land by yourself. Come and join the plane in the air.

Why is it like that self? Same here abeg.

It says the engine are still on the hill till this day. Can you imagine? that since 1942, the engine still dey hill for ekiti because the oyibos that caused it have not come with a tractor to remove it and clean up the area.


Our mumuism no start today, e full inside blood stream.

Black countries especially nigeria, no be him at all. Serious countries face massive disasters and in 3 months, you will not even know that something happened there, but in Nigeria, it will be there many years later.


Make them no make me vex, go carry the thing with hand go throw am inside dustbin, rubbish.

hmm you mean by 1942 Nigerian photographers took photos in color? hmm something fishy, doubt if those photos are real, cos we had black n white tvs, but at least thanks for letting us know when official skull mining started in the west.

AutoJoshNG:


The chance of surviving an air crash is very slim and as such is a disaster when they occur. According to statistics, most air crash occur during takeoffs or landing. Crashes during aircraft cruising are very minimal.

According to the Convention on International Civil Aviation, aviation accident is defined as an occurrence associated with the operation of an aircraft, which takes place from the time any person boards the aircraft with the intention of flight until all such persons have disembarked, and in which:


A person is fatally or seriously injured
The aircraft sustains significant damage or structural failure
The aircraft goes missing or becomes completely inaccessible.


It is worthy of mention to say that the first fatal aviation accident was near Wimereux, France, on the 15th day of June, 1785. The crash killed Jean-François Pilâtre de Rozier who is the balloon inventor, and the other occupant, Pierre Romain.

According to the research we at Autojosh were able to put together, the first plane crash in Nigeria occurred on April 12, 1942 at about 8:15pm on Igbo Ilapa Hill. It is a hill in Ikogosi town of Ekiti state. Ikogosi is the town where warm and cold spring co-exists on a spot. It attracted a lot of tourists.



The crash was during the World War II. A cargo plane loaded with ammunition which included explosives. Even after the crash, the explosives kept exploding for several hours. The explosion set the entire forest on fire which ended up destroying everything that existed there. Till this moment, two hole riddled engines and other body parts of the plane still lies on the hill.

When it comes to the first Nigerian owned aircraft to crash in Nigeria, Nigeria as a country recorded its first plane crash on November 20, 1969. The crashed aircraft was a government-owned DC-10 aircraft. It was traveling from London and ended up crash-landing in Lagos. The crash claimed the lives of 87 passengers and a crew on board.

So as responsible as we think you are here on Nairaland, you too get yourself involved in tribalism and petty comments like

Dehvehlop

Sonsomegrigbo

Salamrushdie Fukafuka and so on...




You just broke my heart....


BTW I'm from Benin and we are not devils as you just painted us..

Shun tribalism, it is bad for our unity

Dear poster,
The DC 10 didn't fly until 1970, and it started commercial services in 1971.

Kindly shut up if you lost your sense of humor. It's not my fault you lost it.

I do joke about my State too and mind you, Edo is my second home.

Next time, you read with sense.
