www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-48830212 Sad event and no doubt shocking for the residents of the home, but one has got to be concerned about the security at such airports! Its more regular than one would expect: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_wheel-well_stowaway_flights One wonders about airport security!? Reply to this message | Report message

If they're not squashed by the retracting wheels (there's next to no spare space in a wheel well) then the cold gets them. Even in Western Europe or USA I suspect it would be nigh on impossible to eliminate possibility of an intruder, in hours of darkness, getting to a remote holding point and climbing into a wheel well.

There are a few residents of Clapham who would take issue with Z calling it 'East London.' Reply to this message | Report message

Oh definitely, and timed with military precision to ensure that he wasn't spotted climbing into the wheel well by ground staff or other passengers on a bright Nairobi morning in the half hour between inspection and boarding.

I guess you would have to be pretty desperate to stow away like that or simple not understand the risks of suffocating, freezing to death, being crushed or falling. Poor chap. Reply to this message | Report message

How sad and how different from 'developed' countries where public inquiries would be demanded on mainstream media. Humble and respectful people. Reply to this message | Report message
