AIR Zimbabwe passengers travelling from Harare to Bulawayo had a scare after the plane lost signals and spent 45 minutes randomly circulating in the air.
The incident happened today.
Said one passenger Tyna Rufurwadzo, "This Airline is more or less the same with Munhenzva buses.
"After 45mins of hovering, the co-pilot informed us that the navigator lost its signal and we have to come back to Harare International Airport".
It is not clear how the pilot found his way back to Harare.
In 2014, President Robert Mugabe failed to land at Harare International Airport due to bad weather on his return home from Italy where he witnessed the canonisation of Pope John XXIII and Pope John Paul II who were declared saints of the Roman Catholic Church by Pope Francis 1.
