A Precision Air atr 42 took of from Entebbe Uganda today the 25th and climbed to cruise altitude. While in the cruise the atr experienced an engine failure and returned back to Entebbe. i think i would prefer to fly on the new air Tanzania dash 8s than the ageing atr 42s. after having dodge maint practices before in daresalam, this makes you wonder what the maint is like with precision air!!
Who are you, a newspaper reporter from the National Enquirer, or the boss's nephew at a competitor of Precision Air?

We have no idea why the engine was shut down... it could have been something as simple as a precautionary shutdown because of a questionable indication.

Until you know the facts and circumstances, speculation and libel such as you wrote above is like pissing down your pant-leg. It might make you feel warm and comfortable, but it is of no value to anyone else.
