Sorry but its not a fail at all, nor an epic fail.

I know first hand of a plane from one country that inadvertently crashed over a border killing 4 people. Country #1 didn't want to know because it wasn't in their territory. Country #2 didn't want to know because the plane wasn't one of theirs. No-one investigated it, end of that sad story.

Airworthy or not, how will the Kenyan's get to the 'wreck' to investigate it? And does Somalia have an Air Accident Investigation Dept up and running? Where is the initial report on the incident - seeing as its more than a few days ago?

And no, Austrian Simon - that was an old prang, the one on this thread is recent. It seems to have happened about the 24th or 25th April
