This is a major issue for someone to investigate. The variety of stories coming out of the press, and the rumours and hearsay are simply amazing! Four helicopters enroute from Uganda to Somalia stop in Nanyuki for refuelling. They then take off on a direct track to either Garissa or Wajir (depending on the report), in formation and apparently with strict radio silence. One makes it to destination, three others don't. One Mayday is heard by Nanyuki tower, one survivor reports an engine failure before impact, helicopters are burnt/upside down/destroyed.
What on earth happened?!?!? Its mind-blowing that what should have been a straightforward repositioning flight ended up with a 75% failure rate.
