Yooh Mkuru... Inafaaa utupigie story ya post election violence in Kenya ya 2007. In the context of creating awareness about our upcoming elections. kuna people who have never known how it started especially how it went down in Uasin Gishu eldoret. Would love to hear your narration of course with that genius mind of yours narrating it with humor and still passing the intended message. Shukran in advance. Wakurugenzi pigeni likes hapa kama mnataka Mkuru atupigie hii story. Adios Muchachos i am out. Peace
Yeah this is true tuambie hii story ya post ellection
Mkuru chapa hii ya 2007 before elections
Kunayo alipiga kuhusu kibera na dandora ..

A few points to note 📝:
- every aircraft leaves behind something called a wake turbulence (vortex). The larger the aircraft the bigger the wake turbulence. Turbulence affects how much lift is generated by the wings since the airflow is non uniform and non directional( chaotic). So during take offs or landings, there's always a separation distance when 2 aircrafts of different weight classes are landing/taking off to allow the wake turbulence from the preceeding aircraft to dissipate.
- We have 2 pilots(or more) in commercial aircraft for a reason. During take off or landing, one pilot is the pilot flying the other is pilot monitoring. The pilot flying as the term suggests is in charge of flying the aircraft while pilot monitoring is checking the aircraft parameters during flight remain as they should be. In this case Wamwea was the pilot flying and Wanyoike was the pilot monitoring. Wanyoike should have noticed the unusual bank attitude and informed the captain
- Commands and executions are always read back to confirm that both pilots are on the same page. So when when Capt Wamwea called for "Autopilot " he should have waited for "Autopilot Engaged" from his copilot to confirm his command has been executed before letting go of the control column
-While Spatial Orientation is real, this should not have been a problem if both pilots were a team. My assumption is they were flying under IFR (Instruments Flight Rules) meaning they didn't need any reference outside of the aircraft to tell the attitude of the aircraft. They were supposed to rely solely on the Instruments inside the cockpit to fly. Unfortunately this role falls squarely on the pilot monitoring, he should have called out any unusual attitude indications.
It's unfortunate that in aviation most lessons are learnt the hard way. Condolences to the families many years on, and hopefully many more lives will be saved as a result of lessons learnt from this incidence.
Thank you Mkuru and team for keeping us entertained, educated and informed
Great elaborations
First time I have taken a notebook to write a youtube comment
Kindly, elaborate point 1 on turbulence
Am not in aviation but have alot of curiosity with aircrafts and space science
@@conrado. When air moves over a wing it creates a zone of high pressure underneath the wing and low pressure above it due to the curvature of the wing as air above the wing has to travel faster than air below to cover the same distance. This pressure difference results in a suction force lifting the wing into the air. Now, you want the air to remain in contact with the wing as much as possible and to flow in a uniform manner over the wing (laminar flow). When the flow of air in contact with the wing ceases to be uniform, the flow becomes chaotic and unpredicatable. We say the flow now is turbulent. Think of it like water flowing along a uniform slope vs water flowing over rocks/rapids. One is more calm while the other is chaotic and noisy. This drastically reduces the lift produced by the wing hence affecting its performance
- Wake turbulence is a bit different. You see as you approach the wingtip the wing becomes thinner and thinner. Due to the difference in pressure above and below the wing, this air spills over in a spiral manner creating a vortex/ a zone of very fast moving air and very low pressure. Imagine wake turbulence as a large ship moving through water at a considerable speed creating huge waves. Then a small boat is moving right behind it. The small boat might not be able to cope with the waves and if it can cope its going to be very difficult to cotrol. So its adviced to let the waves die down before attempting to follow the big ship
Aerodynamics is a difficult and complex subject but i hope umepata kitu. Cheers

You can dig more into fluid mechanics. Btw turbulent flow is very important because it allows things to mix faster. When you stir tea to dissolve sugar youre actually creating turbulence to allow the contents to mix up faster
Nyaga you’re a True Aviation Expert. Is this your area?
@@Mkurugenziii Yes its my area of training. I dont consider myself an expert but I know a few things. Asante Mkubwa
my dad missed the plane on his way to Kenya from ghana he was told the wrong flight i remember it was on saturday watching club kiboko
Wtf
Waoh...God is redemer
So lucky thank God
Shukuru Mungu
Wow! What a sad story? Moral lesson: No idea is too insignificant, never belittle your junior co-workers.
My kids will probably be wondering where I get endless stories from 🤣🤣kumbe naiba huku😜😜😜❤️
My mum also
I am officially employed na kazi ni kuwait for this premier😂 my all time storyteller......I thought i was good in story telling until I met Mkurugenziiii🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Listening to this story makes me feel like I can fly a plane
Petition to return Young and Stupid...
Celebrity first encounter
Going back to an old episode just to sing that song
Alot of improvements have been made to ensure aviation safety, Fundamentals of Human Factors in Aviation training and BAPM were introduced also crew scheduling and flying hours was reviewed, aviation safety is not taken lightly. Thank you Mkurugenzi for always taking us back to class at the same time entertaining us
The story is personal before the flight , my family friend and neighbor, Andrew Kiuru( the 1st officer) had visited us in a jovial mood having bought his first car. Saddest still he was the only kid to the Kiuru's and the airline had initially blamed him with a stupid argument of inexperience. R.I.P Dru
Thanks mkuruu at least the story is finally out and the truth Andrew rest in peace
He did his best under tough conditions. May he rest in peace.
The only son, he's survived by a sister. The airline can't blame someone before investigations are done, it's romour mongering people who thought 21yr olds can't be capable of flying planes

Mkurugenzi is not pregnant but he always delivers💥💯
😂😂😂😂💯
Ukweli mtupu 😂😂💯
Say no more
Wololo🤩
😂😂
Mkuruu after this episode all Kenyan pilots should organize first class special sit for you to any place in the world....na ukipata unitafute 😅😅
Mkuru you never dissapoint.Always on point kama decimal especially story na aviation
Recovery from spin or stall can be very difficult especially when the CG is not accurately calculated, aviation is just awesome, big thanks to Mkurugenzi
Andrew was my classmate in high School. He was an overachiever given it was only 3 years after high school. RIP sir
Was my classmate in primary school pale Maragua. After KCPE the next time I heard of him was during this plane crash. May he RIP.
@@msitomsitochangli4425 Shule gani pale Maragwa?
Mistakes are inevitable in aviation, especially when one is still learning new things. The trick is not to make the mistake that will kill you.
Wakurugenzi 2023🎉🎉🎉
mkuru makes every story funny naturally without forcing😂😂😂😂got me dead when he talked of how signals should be,,,,ati oya gatheeee🤣the whistling at that point was so perfect.I dont regret tuning into this at 1 am .God bless this man to the fullest.So much love mazeeeee♥♥♥♥
Na sii uko mrembo

Thank you mkuru going through somethings In life just needed something to clear my mind and relax and this was just it for me . Jah bless💯♥️
I’m so glad I found this channel, I’ve been missing a lot I see. You are the only story teller who can make a sad story sound funny 😂
Wowww
Abeli feels nice bringing on my favourite segmenttttt....

Mimi niko hapa na kitaku bado na bank every new word niko MKaviation chapter 3 sasa ... It was so sad to learn small small not taken care of lead to a massive destruction had reconciliated their differences could have been better .THANKS MKURUNGENZI na wakurugenzi na team for making possible GOD awa bless saana mko moyooni
I’m absolutely hooked to your stories.
This was indeed a sad sad story in the airline industry 😢
I’m in the airline industry for 9 years now and I can tell you it’s never a good idea to be impatient as far as flying us concerned.
One of the greatest pilots I know told me ‘you’d rather wish you were in the air while on the ground rather than wish you’re on the ground while in the air.
I really love your narration of aircraft stories.
Greetings from 🇺🇸
Ur contacts pliz
Aviation to the fullest...
Evidently, you have done alot of research ..
Sir, respect!!
Keep up.. waiting next stry
The start was splendid 😊 Destiny umetukatia kautamu....cheers mkuru!
Am a Kenyan residing in Cameroon and listening to Mkuru. ..waah our industry is .......
Finally mkuru is here.....💆 relax mode on..btw hizi fun facts ukianza bana humaliza.....👍
Aki I feel like am in a classroom,I remember this flight and how Kenya's were devastated, thanks mkurugenzi for sharing this story...and someone said 99.9%of flight clash is people mistakes.Sad RIP to the people who lost their lives ❤️🙏💯
Niko Airplane Mode after kuchapa Captain Morgan 🤣🤣
Air Crash Investigation should contract you to tell the crash stories. I've exhausted all episodes za Air Crash Investigation on CZcams and none matches up how you've told this one. Even those without Aviation knowledge can retell this story. Kudos Mkurugenzi!👏🏽👏🏽
Yevonne you are my new buddy am also a sucker of aircrush investigation
Wow.
This is eye opening particularly on how senior to junior relationships at work can GREATLY affect outcomes.
I'm a doctor, believe me when I say I see it.
Had been waiting for so long for this
The way I love Aviation makes me to stick here with mukurugenzi🥰🥰
The top storyteller i know soo far
Seated and my seat belt is on
Waiting for captain mkuru Tu do his thing✈️✈️
Mkurugenzi you are really an Aviation Enthusiast. Mpaka explanation yako ni poa sana na rahisi kwa mtu kuelewa. I also think that both pilots would have acknowleged each others communication like vile alisema "Engage Autopilot" , First Officer would have acknowledged and said "Autopilot engaged". This needs to be adopted in any field even in a one on one communication to avoid miscommuniation.
Abel your the Man i have no words Mkurugenzi ....just perfect.🥳
Aviation Class in session. Thank you Mkurugenzi
You had me at 'oya gatheeeeee' 🤣🤣
Another great story from the GOAT himself 🙌
Sadly its said that the captain took off without clearance from the control center 😢😢😢😢.
That's why i normally HIT the Like button b4 i sit and insert earphones niskize aviation class ya Mkrugenzi 👏 👏👏🙏 🙏🙏
Namuonea wivu sana mtu mwenye ndo kwanza anajua this channel... Lotsa episodes for him/her to watch.. sisi ni kusubiri on the weekly LOL... mkuruu you the "BEST"... emphasis on the quotes
Mzee mwenyewe.. Sir Abel umenibamba sana buda..
Can't miss any of this.
Bored in the house with a very bad cold but hii story imelift my spirits. God akubless Mkuruu
Well i am yet to find a boring episode, proving me wrong always.
Keep at it sir👌
Listening while working and my colleague got me laughing alone hiyo part ya "Oya gathee"😅 😅 . I know they think I am crazy.
Another banger from Mkuru and the aviation stories.. 😁😁
Keep up mkurugenzi
Thanks for the story. Please bring us the KQ accident in Abidjan a few years early.
Mkurugenzi you a gem💯storytelly amegraduate🔥continue doing your great job.....mob love from me💖
Another Aviation banger On Headline hitters. Another Aviation Class.🔥..
Please please Mkurugenzi kindly do the story of that plane that lost for 37 years & came back
Waiting kama kawaida much love 💕 💕 💕
The one thing that kills me is how mkuru laughs at his own jokes.🤣🤣
😆😆
Hio nayo niukweli making even more better and eager
@@emilymula645 haha true story...
Weeeu I loved the way u explain ur stories.. First time subscriber.. U hve earned a follower
Never knew NTSA is also in charge of air transport safety. I always assumed they are in charge of road transport safety.
Its all manner of transport. However there is a specialized civil aviation department at NTSA that deals with air incidences.
I think the right authority in Kenya is Kenya Civil Aviation Authority(KCAA)
That's American NTSB
because they aren't its the KCAA Kenya Civil Aviation Authority
Thenk you abel for todeys story,i was soo bored at work but you cheered me up.il never get tired of lisning to you,,much love from nyandarua 💖🔥🔥
@@PaleMashinani nyahururu
I really like the Aviation stories you should do more, Mkuru great job 👏
Aviation stories are always 🔥🔥🔥
True
I watch them on you tube I have almost watched all .
Mkuru School of Aviation!! 🔥🔥
Sad story told in an interesting way. You're a story telling guru man.
This crash gave me a scare. My cousin used to fly that route almost thrice a week. The crash happened on his off day.
This was an extremely distressing accident; it messed so many people. The process thereafter was worst ever in my memory.
Awaiting this one ile mbaya alafu mkuru am a poet and would like to do an icebreaker in one of your shows
Mkuru, can you tell the story about the vanishing of Malaysian flight 370
I have subscribed your channel after watching in an interview without presenter ali... I enjoyed your stories and u r a gud story teller.. this is a talent
Mkurugenzi. Guzia story ya D.B cooper ..it's worth re -listening from you👍✌️
You are the best in what you do..thanks mkuruuuu
On that fateful day, when the story reached Kenya. I remember I was in Kenyatta intl Airport, coming to Diaspora. Until that time whenever I come for vacation, I always have goose burbs
Fly with ethiopian or qatar airways
First time watching your content Mr. Mutua. I have to say that I've been missing a lot. You are a great narrator.
Yoh hes a very very good story teller 🔥
Kenya ni AAID (Aircraft Accident Investigation Department) under Ministry of Transport. NTSA is for road safety. Narration safi mkurugenzi😊
The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) is an independent U.S. government investigative agency responsible for civil transportation accident investigation. In this role, the NTSB investigates and reports on aviation accidents and incidents, certain types of highway crashes, ship and marine accidents, pipeline incidents, bridge failures, and railroad accidents.
The NTSB may assist in incident or accident investigations occurring outside the United States under certain circumstances. These may include accidents or incidents involving American-registered or American-owned civil aircraft or aircraft with U.S. manufactured components in foreign air space.
KQ was using a boeing 737-800 therefore the US had interest in understanding the crash.
The 3rd time watching your content...wow what a great narrator...I took a lot of your content for granted...kudos, keep it up.
Mkuru always amazing big up champe you always a vibe i swear ata ukifungua kanisa mimi nitajoin ukifungua shule nitatafuta uniform
🔥🔥🔥
wwuuueeeh yani sai nimeivaaa story za aviations vifreshi baridaa😁😁🙌🙌🙌..note book imejaa stry ya aviation..God bless Mkuru💪💯🤝
Mkuru...my 10yr old daughter loves this specific episode just this specific part... transport authority ya USA ni NTSB ya Kenya ni NYSA. ya Cameroon ni "N"...Non existence 😂😂😂 ana repeat hio part everytime
Aviation stories are always intense
Mkuru amgekuwa mwalimu wangu wa histo ninge pita kila kitu....niko exam room nakumbuka (Oya gathe, Nijikute) azin is all fun kumsikiliza na dawa ya stress ni story za mkuru💪...#my full G
Superb content and very well researched bro . Pure entertainment
Takeoffs and landings are the most dangerous journey section in aviation low altitude
I have learned a lot here. Heshima si utumwa. Thank Mkuru.
Mkuru kwako tuko imara✊✊.much love kutoka kayole junction
Never disappoint 😌🙂😎
Mkurungezi never fails 🔥🔥🥰🥰
NTV Just aired this story today and i chose to come back here to quench my thirst.... Wamenishikisha nyege kwa story najua
Piloting tunajifunzia hapa hapa, mkuru toa fee structure 👏
Mkurugenzi is killing it venye infaa💯💯❤
tulikuwa tunareopen second term, one guy didn't show up. tukasema ako duoala. he carried that nickname till tumalize shule Nov. been seeking explanation for hio fall, of which MCAS aint it. Mkuru ni researcher. bro, amazing
Thanks to mkuruu..mimi naeza kuwa pilot sasa anipa lessons bila kuchoka
Salute to amazing story teller...
I remember this day very well,my siz in Law's brother was a cabin crew,what a sombre morning that was!and the reality of the situatuation on the days that followed.May they continue R.I.P
Mkurugenzi never dissapoints 😁🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪 tuhihamwe 😂😂
So accurate analysis Mkuru.
Not me discovering Abel's channel today. 🥺Here to binge watch Mkuru's school of aviation 😁
manze uko on top
my friend introduced me to your video and nikazipenda mbaya🔥🔥🔥
keep up the good work...pia mimi naleta watu💯
What an intro aty Fanta,,soo fantabulous 😂😂
Kama kawaida, Mkuru never disappoints with these aviation stories.. One hell of a story teller! As an aviation enthusiasts myself i love every single aviation story you put out here ! 👏👏
Now.. of all the commercial aviation accident stories I've heard caused by pilot errors, this one always sounds strange everytime I hear it and leaves me wondering how these two ended up in the same cockpit.
This must have been the worst crew to ever be in a cockpit to supposedly "work together" lol
Of all other reasons given as to why this accident happened.. Lack of CRM (Crew Resource Management) clearly played a huge part.
In as much as the responsibility of the safety of a flight from take off to landing almost always rests equally with both pilots, this was clearly a mismanagement of the flight by no one but the captain, he was more experienced and more knowledgeable about the aircraft, and as is always the case, the person in command on the flight deck during an active flight.
I say this because this pilot, given the reports that he had asked the FO to perform some tasks during the first leg of the flight and reprimanded him and called him unpleasant names because he couldn't perform the tasks well or to his liking/standards obviously thought he was in the cockpit alone and did not need or recognise that he had a FO by his side, probably because he was young and inexperienced. He (pilot) had established himself as Lord and Messiah in that cockpit and whatever he said went without question! Which should never ever be the case in commercial aviation.
The situation is further compounded by the breakdown in communication between him and the now timid and scared FO to a point they were doing their own things at the same time, overiding each other's commands to the aircraft, which is a very dangerous scenario in a cockpit in active flight.
Bottom line.. they were all confused and in their confusion, together with the spacial disorientation, confused the aircraft even more and there was just no time to recover from the dangerous attitude they had put the aircraft in.
Such a thing should never be happening in commercial aviation in this era, and I hope everyone concerned learnt afew lessons from that. 🙏🙏
I was 10 and lived in Nairobi when this happened. I remember the news coverage so vividly. It was such a sad few weeks of them looking for the victims and trying to figure out what happened. It’s so heartbreaking to think that just one change or just a few seconds could have saved all those lives.
9:48
vortices are from the wings, hence the nane wingtip vortices. From uneven wind speed from top and bottom of the wings
thanks for that intro, ckujua the story behind fanta.
My favorite celebrity
That was a very sad moment, for Kenya and the aviation industry. Too bad there was no reaffirmation of the commands between the captain and the first officer, resulting to 114 fatalities- May God rest their souls. It's always a reminder for me and all the pilots to always be on high alert during all phases of flight, things happen so fast, gonna be on high alert cause in most cases, you don't get to learn from you mistakes as it was the case with our Skippers. May they rest in peace
