Simulated plane crash excercise at King Shaka Airport
There is no need for panic says King Shaka Airport management.
KING Shaka Airport management has reassured the public that everything is under control. This after a training exercise currently being carried out of a simulated plane crash caused concern among travelers earlier today. Several questioned why there were so many emergency response vehicles on the airport’s runway.
The airport issued an apology to travelers and visitors on site.
