Twin Otter ZS-NJK down in the DRC

Friday, 31-Aug-07 @ +- 13:30Z

South African reg: ZS-NJK, Twin Otter aircraft type, was reported "missing" soon after take-off from PUNIA (in the Kindu Region). Operator --- "AirServe Int" based in Goma. Crew are reported to be US Nationals.

Updated info received indicates a "forced landing"....both pilots were airlifted to Goma for medical treatment, by helicopter. Aircraft has been observed in Kisangani as well before.....
