When a South African Airways Airbus A340-600 landed in Johannesburg from Accra, Ghana on 15 April last year, all was not as it seemed. During the flight, the plane’s engines started surging - an unusual occurrence for any aircraft as it may suggest contaminated fuel and demands urgent action from the flight crew. Alarmingly, though, the flight’s commander chose to continue flying back to O.R. Tambo International Airport… It was the third in a series of four recent incidents involving SAA. But, while other airlines have been grounded over safety concerns, the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) - mandated with regulating our airspace - has taken no action against the national carrier. Our probe uncovers evidence that all is not well at the CAA, undermining our country’s reputation for sterling air safety.

[@mixi2090]

Carte Blanche... the cac these guys dig up is amazing. They should come with a warning like don't consume 3 episodes in a row.... you will cut your wrists.

[@neil_digital]

Scary stuff. Better checks and balances are clearly required.

What happens to us South Africans who bought air tickets within the 24 hours before SAA closed down local flights. I was emailed a voucher . But when I tried to use the voucher and called the number provided, I was told that it could only be used to fly abroad. I don't have money to fly abroad.

Wherever the ANC has initiated transformation and deployment of cadres corruption is guaranteed.

[@radhapillay1433]

Omg Derrick has lost so much of weight. He looks good 😊

[@mentalhealth9637]

[@manero7634]

ANC!! Is written all over this

[@ntobekomakhukhula2529]

[@Bruce-pf9uu]

Why are we even surprised...

[@pheasanthillstud]

How can SAA still be part of the STAR ALLIANCE ???

[@floating-in]

Crazy, the gaslighting is everywhere.

[@nobodyinparticular709]

All part of "transformation"

[@francisssali2550]

This is extremely messy and dangerous.

[@alphacroster455]

money is more important than human life. nice people.

[@dr.wianmeintjes9028]

Hi. Nostalgia or impact. If you do not proclaim the demise of a Country, do you lie, yes. Who is to blaim. No one. More and more with NO impact. So it is

[@natesnautical]

Basically don’t fly SAA ever!!!

[@ardeeljohannes4978]

He said she said

[@tonybotha3917]

No comments, I can't believe it.

[@johnsmith9476]

Camera angle did this dude wrong

[@gandalf87264]

Goodness Derek, you have aged a lot since I saw you last. How long have you been with Mnet for now 35 years? Good going man.

[@thetradingpostcapetown]

Aaa joy! More Eskom-type mafia elements

[@SixFootScream]

Our country is becoming a joke by the day.

[@miavos3610]

SAA???? Who are they??

[@Zangettsu_ZA]

Another institution brought to its knees...

[@bryanprice417]

Not surprising what happens next in this country as we've hit rock bottom at every turn. We have become a disgusting 3rd world country that has no chance of recovery for as long as who is who in government ruining, not ruling this country. You might say I am talking about the wrong parties involved here but all hateful practices emerging since 1994 have now descended on us nation wide in all spheres of business and life in general.
