A small plane carrying 6 American soldiers today July 18th crash landed
on a highway outside Uganda's capital Kampala after running out of fuel. It had to make a quick safe landing to avoid any
disaster.
Reports say the plane which took off from the Entebbe airport
in Uganda was heading to
neighboring South Sudan when their aircraft was forced to turn back due
to bad weather and
then land on a highway after running out of fuel approximately 40 miles
from the airport. Fortunately no on was injured. Continue...
Uganda's
army spokesman, Paddy Ankunda while confirming the incident said
"Nobody was hurt. There were eight passengers including the pilot and
co-pilot,". He attributed
the lack of casualties to Uganda being 'full of miracles.' "Definitely
there must have been a bit of luck. A highway is not a place for
aeroplanes, so they were lucky to find no vehicles," he added
Emergency teams from Entebbe International airport were quickly
drafted to refuel the fixed-wing craft so that it could return to
base.

You see! So no be only Nigerians de make mistake.
@STERN read d statement again b4 u comment. Thank God no casualties#Brassman#
Who told u guys there wasn't enuf fuel. The fuel in the plane was meant to travel to the south, probably after landing would get a refill to go back but was forced to go back due to bad weather then ran out of fuel due to travelling back to where it took off earlier. Read the story well and stop commenting blindly
No! They took off with enough fuel endurance to their destination but couldn't land because of bad weather. Sir reading thoroughly isn't so bad.
wow..Thank GOD Almighty.
#GoodGOD
Ha!!!
When I first read about this in the news, my first thought was about that scene in the movie Lord of war, where a plane landed in the middle of an African market and was dismembered in a matter of minutes! Funny thing!
Alhamdulilahi
Anon 11:49pm, why not go back and read properly?
@Stern is right.
They did emergency landing on the high way due to lack of fuel but turned back due to the bad weather.
They could hv gone to the tarmac but, they had to land on the high way cos they ran out of fuel.
"forced to turn back due to bad weather and then land on a highway after running out of fuel approximately 40 miles from the airport"
I wonder how you made through the 4-walls of University or you're prolly still a student.
Lucky them,it would have been a different story

They ran out of fuel Anon. Although the bad weather also contributed.
I can imagine the panic and prayers said before the pilot landed the plane to a safe place. Very Lucky i must say.

The pilots prolly had 2 dump fuel in d face of an imminent crash.
They would av been in hot soup if it were to be one of our great Nigerian highway full of deadly holes...
