PLANE SENT TO HELP PASSENGERS FROM PLANE CRASH CRASHES

In Tanzania, Africa, on Tuesday, an airplane sent to retrieve passengers after their aircraft was forced to make a crash landing also crashed while taking off from the same runway hours later. Both flights were operated by Unity Air, a Tanzania-based airline, and happened at the airstrip serving nearby Mikumi National Park. The first flight, which carried 30 passengers, two pilots and one flight attendant, suffered a right landing gear collapse and veered off the runway into the grass. No injuries were reported, and the travelers were able to continue to their safaris in the park. Six hours later another aircraft sent to help the first plane suffered its own nose gear collapse, veering off the runway and colliding with a building before coming to a stop. There were no injuries in that crash, either.
* It all worked out, though, because the lions ate the safari guests.
* Apparently, Tanzania has a shortage of lug wrenches.
* Might be safer to exit by parachute just as you get to the runway.
* Tanzania: hope you like walking.
