My sister came out to Nairobi unaccompanied on an ASA Britannia from Stansted aged about 12 in 1971 - I would have been 7 and when we met her at Embakasi she claimed it was held together by sticky tape and string. I'm quite sure that was a slanderous statement... I remember it on the ramp at Embakasi with the zebra-striped fin.
