It was'nt an engine failure! The prop governor played up and the pilot decided to shut down the engine. Mistake number one. Mistake number two, the pilot decided to return to Wilson, instead of going to Kenyatta. Mistake number three, the pilot landed deep at Wilson, and blew the tyres due to excessive braking.

The machine is fixed and is flying again. Mistake number four, the pilot probably does'nt have a job anymore!
