Crew Being Interviewed

The crew is being interviewed by 5 investigators of the Accident Investigation Bureau (AIB) of Nigeria. Reportedly crashed at Kwasi Posa village in Niger Republic after it flew into a sandstorm.

As reported "After the sandstorm, the plane lost contact with the Kano Airport control tower, hovered for hours in the air and later ran out of fuel, which prompted the pilots to land crash (sic) the plane in the village."
