  1. THE ZAMBIAN RESCURE WHITE HELICOPTERS ARE WRECKS MWEBANTU! HOW CAN YOU SEND SUCH WRECKS TO RESCURE ANOTHER WRECK.
    PLEASE BUY NEW HELICOPTERS

    • The helicopters seem to have done a good job so far. Remember in aviation the quality of plane is determined by the level of maintenance and not the outward look. An old helicopter may have newer parts than a “new” helicopter.

  2. Condolences to all Malawians. May the deceased’s souls rest in peace. Wishing you strength and prayers.
