Light Aircraft down in Botswana

Heard a rumour a light aircraft out of Zambia went down in Botswana this week. Possibly a C206 mission aircraft. Anyone got any more info on this?

God must have been watching over them! No injuries in a forced landing in the bush!

I presume you are referring to the same God that gave them the engine failure?

If you are going to bring God into this then you must think about such weghty matters as sins, retribution and the missionary's position?
Possibly a good idea not to go there. Excommunication lurks for the unwary.

Are we to deduce that the economic situation in heaven is so bad, that God has taken up employment at Teledyn Continental?
