The growing number of light aircraft crashes in Kenya is cause for concern. This year, there have been at least four plane crashes that, between them, have claimed 22 lives and left a number of people with serious injuries.
In February this year, two people were killed when a light aircraft on patrol at Solio Rhino Sanctuary in Nyeri County crashed. In March, a light plane that was carrying exam papers crashed into a hill in Marsabit. The accident left two people dead.
