A passenger plane operated by local airline Silverstone Air was Monday morning forced to make an emergency landing at Eldoret International Airport after one of its tyres dropped off mid-air a few moments after taking off from Lodwar.
The Dash 8 – 300 aircraft which was heading to Nairobi landed safely in Eldoret, in a move which saw passengers who were on the plane booked into another aircraft to Nairobi.
