What are these other carriers like? I doubt I’d want to fly air Ethiopia or Kenya?

I’m a very nervous flyer though
They are obviously not as good as Emirates or Qatar (but even BA or QANTAS can't hold candles to them). But Ethiopian Airlines and Kenya Airways are from what I can tell the best African carriers up there with South African and perhaps Egypt Air.
I could be wrong but didn't Ethiopia Air line have a plane fall out of the sky last year?

I can't recall exactly. I think so. It was that 737 Max airplane which apparently has been fixed and is now back in service. One of my best friends is a pilot and he said that many of the third world countries have under-trained pilots and even a lot of the developed nations have pilots who are too accustomed to automation, and so when a computer malfunctions, and they need to override it manually, they panic and thats how many crashes happen. Its all routine things that properly trained pilots are supposed to ace.

Yes I would say those are the top 4 and maybe Rwanda Air. Ethiopian Airways has been very consistent and running throughout the whole pandemic

Who's playing? Is this an intra-squad practice match?

First time seeing Burl and Tari play together. It’s going to be interesting. ZC really have been depriving us. It will be easy to see who is the better fit
