The Kenya police chopper that crashed Sunday morning has been identified as a euro copter as350 b3e, a relatively new plane reportedly acquired by the police force in January this year. The manufacturer, the euro copter group insists that it is a high performance aircraft that can manoeuvre any weather condition and Kenya was the first African country to acquire this particular model. Andrew Ochieng reports on aircraft, and the pilots who lost their lives aboard it.
