Umqondo wabalawuli nohulumeni uphonselwa inselelo lapha ukuthi ushintshe, ukuze ezokuthutha ngendiza zisuke ngempela. ”
Sekuyiminyaka le mizwa iqhubeka, kuyakhumbuleka, kanti ngaphezu kwalokho izindleko zikaphethiloli wendiza, kanye nokutholakala kwawo jikelele njenge-AVGAS ngokwesibonelo, kuwudaba oluhlobene nokuvimbela ukuhamba kwezindiza ekuthathweni njengohlobo lokuthutha abantu abaningi njengoba kwenzeka kwenye indawo.
