I admire Kirks honesty in posting these pictures.

I think it's more of a request for help/spares than 'honesty'
PS I can't see that FB page, so I'm guessing

Maurice now has G-KURK inside Lokichogio Airport as he has agreed to a KCAA engineer overseeing the repairs to the Wings.
Maurice isn't as irresponsible as some would like to believe, his acceptance of KCAA Help immediately got G-KURK from outside the gates of Lokichogio to a nice spot on the apron.

I am sure the repair won't be to LAA standards but it will certainly make it 'marginally airworthy '

Why do you write 'marginally airworthy'? Surely it will be either airworthy or not airworthy? Go or no-go.

Why should the repair not be to LAA standards, on a Cub they shouldn't be too difficult to achieve.

Who can please advise Maurice that I have found a Cub wing available in Kenya.

I sent a copy of your post to family and friends. So he will know in a day or so. The problem with that is he may not know how to answer the message or get in touch. So that others who are in direct daily contact are needed to help with AfricaEagle's message:-

I'll be at the Aero Club at Wilson for the next couple of days. If that's any help, PM me your contact details....

l would have thought it would have been easier if MK had trucked the Cub to Wilson. Repairing her in such a remote area is going to be a lot harder and slower.

By the look of things, he's going to be flitting between Nairobi and Loki for a few weeks yet

A contact, based in Loki, has reported that MK crashed his Cub yesterday, 5 nm from the airfield. No further details.

Anyone in contact with his supporters?

Hmm

So Cape Town is a way off....

According to a video now posted on FB;

Can I assume that the a few forum posters will now attempt to ascertain the exact circumstances of the accident, namely who his copilot was, the number of hours they both had, if they should be wearing RAF wings, and make comments on his flying ability....?

Facebook video of G-KURK in a thornbush. Audio commentary by Maurice?

This is going from very bad to much worse. We need a Ratty and Mole to grab Mr Toad and lock him away somewhere safe before this ends with an obituary in The Times..

Well I now know it's the poisonous bushes you don't want to fly into.

There appears to be no escape from the relentless advance of the High Vis Jacket..................

But if they weren't wearing them, Maurice might have crashed into them. The bush wasn't wearing one, ergo.... it got hit.

It's almost a month since we have had news of Maurice Kirk since his EFATO at Loki, does anyone have any news of him?

Plane and engine being rebuilt in Nairobi...

A/c in Kenya, MK in the UK - see his supporters' page on Facebook where he's posting under the pseudonym of Sean Wilson. Some news about floats....and departing Kenya from a lake....
