FT,
Two choppers were in Aba that day, one belonging to the Itallian construction firm based in Naf base and the other a yellow 'A' star. The truth of the incident is still 'shady' since the authority is yet to be informed officially of what happened. They too heard of the acident on the pages of news paper. The other time a 'red' Dauphin passenger door was found at Ilupeju. It was during the audit of the company concerned that they owned up that the door found was theirs! I hope they carry out another audit to that same company maybe 'bloodstain' will still be found on the TRB(S). In the country where brown envelope is the order of the day, the truth might never be found out.
Now tha Odili has withdrawn from the presidential race the AW139 may never fly as envislaged. I hope what happened few years ago when the millitary boys came to power and 'towed' away the CBN and NNPC aeroplanes out of Aero apron will not repeat itself again this time around;not the millitary but EFCC visiting Naf base! We are all waiting to see the outcome.
Caverton may not get the AW139 again. Learnt they are bringing a 'Let 410' Fixed wing for the Lagos Bonny run for LNG.
