One time I was on a DHC Dash-8, a turboprop, to some location like that. The plane was full and as we took off I don't think anyone expected any drama. It's a routine flight after all.
Suddenly we started seeing smoke from engine no 1. Damn! The fan was slowing down and from all indications the engine was out. And this plane had taken off and was leveling. See wahala!
Only we on the left saw it. Those on the right saw nothing. We called the attention of the flight attendant to it and she took a peek from a nearby window before hurrying away. I think the pilots must have seen it too, cos shortly an announcement came over the radio and they said they'd be turning back to the airport.
See drama in the airplane. Turning wetin this is where you'll know even oyinbo people dey fear like craze. Some however tried to keep calm. I guess those are the ones who gave always expected to die in a place crash
Anyways, i love airplanes and have seen a lot of airplane dramas in documentaries. I knew quite well the plane could fly on one engine, but even that knowledge wasn't exactly comforting at this trying time. The pilot managed the situation well, turned the aircraft (you'd hardly notice) and proceeded back to the airport.

We made a safe landing, switched planes and went back in air again. So much for a near miss.

Sometimes, i think. If the two engines had failed, that plane would have turned a glider that may have very well crashed into the dense neighborhood below and we'll all be history.

Anyways, who wants to talk plane dramas. Anyone had similar or worse experiences?

Desperate people.

I can confidently say these areally RCCG members, check that woman on rafta hat.

Very shameful, politics has entered church. Saying another thing and dgoing another.

That one was sad. The father killing the ATC was not justified sha. Easily avoidable accident, if all the odds were not stacked against the ATC.

Do you fly these planes? Which military planes do you have interest in?

goofyone:
Aircrash investigation is a Canadian series.
Which was your favorite episode? And why the fascination?

d33types:

goofyone:
Oh, I love aircrash investigation. I've probably seen all the episodes.
You love the Canadian series too?

Reminds me of the on-ground collision at one of the canary islands between a Pan Am plane and a KLM. Not good at all.

And so?

Official numbaccused of hiding the number! official numbers.

In South Africa it is illegal for the SANDF to hide casualties, because of a High Court Ruling in the 1980's regarding the issuing of the names of SADF personal who were killed in top secret missions in Angola.

Thats right, the oppressive army of the Apartheid Regime was more transparent than the Nigerian Army of today

MikeCZAR:
Eyewitness?

Only French soldiers were present when the fallen heroes were loaded into the C-130. They held a parade.

Politicapharma:
You're sick. I can see what a single Nigerian life is worth to you. 17 French were killed and they shook heavens to bring the terrorists to justice. Maybe until your brother or sister is killed, that's when you'll wake up from your delusion. Sick people.

mzilakazi:
That is a lie!! the stats have been shot played so as to put away the blames from military. Many people have drown in the lake. 150 is just a number that is perfect for guess work.
