Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 44022, member: 636"] Ten tourists suffered minor injuries Wednesday after their small plane crash-landed at a remote airstrip in Zimbabwe. The aircraft was carrying passengers from Harare to Kafue National Park in Mozambique when problems forced an emergency landing at Kanyemba airstrip in Mbire district. The Beech 200 Super King Air missed the runway and slid into tall grass before coming to a stop. Local village head Tengo Mugonapanja said the pilot appeared badly shaken after the incident. Emergency crews helped remove all passengers from the damaged aircraft. The plane needs major repairs before it can fly again. Officials have not released details about what caused the emergency landing. All injured passengers received medical attention at the scene. The aircraft registration number is ZS-TAE according to witness reports. [/QUOTE]
