A Nigerian Air Force (NAF) Air Beetle Aircraft today crashed in Kaduna while on a mission. The only soul on board the aircraft, one of the NAF’s experienced instructor pilots, was unfortunately lost during the mishap. The cause of the incident is unknown but the Chief of the Air Staff (CAS) has immediately directed the constitution of a board of inquiry to determine the immediate and remote causes of the crash. The unfortunate incident is a tragic reminder of the hazards associated with the flying profession. The CAS and the entire NAF family commiserate with the relatives of the late instructor pilot.

Oga, this aircraft is not used for warfare. Its strictly for training. Preliminary courses in landing and taking off, initial night mode flights. But they are being replaced by planes purchased from Pakistan which are of higher quality and less noisy.

I saw alots of planes taken off and landing today during the NAF short service pop.

They are mostly air force pilots undergoing training.
