It was on the last leg from Kariba to Salisbury on the 3rd of September 1978 that Air Rhodesia Flight RH825 sent a Mayday call.

It had been fired by ZIPRA men...terrorists, guerrillas, combatants, comrades, cadres, freedom fighters, soldiers (depending on your viewpoint) 18 survived the crash but later the callous murderers shot and bludgeoned 10… one man, seven women and two young female children.
