Actually, the flight to Brussels from Kinshasa was operated as ET98 by Ethiopian Airlines crew using the Boeing 787-8 (ET-ASI) on behalf of Air Congo under an ACMI (Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance, and Insurance) wet-lease agreement.
Currently, all airlines certified in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) are listed on the EU Air Safety List due to regulatory safety oversight concerns. They are prohibited from operating flights into the European Union under their own certificates.
So, to legally serve Brussels, Air Congo utilized a foreign-registered aircraft operated by Ethiopian Airlines.
This arrangement is like a long-term charter, with Ethiopian providing the aircraft, crew, maintenance, and insurance while the flight is marketed by Air Congo.
Kindness that was worth more than 50,000,000 million.
Modesta Nyabuhara, a brave Ugandan woman, played a crucial role in supporting the RPF/RPA Inkotanyi during the struggle for Rwanda's liberation. Mama Nyabuhara generously offered one of her houses, which became a vital resource for the RPA.
One room served as a secure storage space for ammunition and weapons, while the other functioned as a temporary medical facility for injured RPA soldiers.
Located just 4 kilometers from Rwanda, Modesta Nyabuhara's house became a pivotal hub for the RPA's operations. Despite the lack of official support from the Ugandan government, individual Ugandans like Mama Nyabuhara stepped up to contribute to the liberation of Rwanda.
In March 2014, Mama Nyabuhara was diagnosed with hypertensive heart disease at the SASA Cardiology Clinic in Kampala.
She was advised to seek treatment in either India or South Africa, but she was unable to afford the required 50 million Ugandan shillings for the operation.
The RPF led by His Excellency President Paul Kagame came to her aid, covering her medical expenses and providing additional support.✊🏿♥️

BOEING EYES RWANDA AS AFRICA AVIATION HUB PLANS ACCELERATE
Boeing and Rwanda are discussing potential aircraft sales, financing, and aviation development support as Kigali pushes to become a major regional aviation hub by the 2030s. The talks align with Rwanda’s goal of expanding RwandAir’s fleet from 14 to 21 aircraft by 2029 and doubling annual passengers to over 2.1 million. Beyond new jets, the partnership could boost cargo capacity, trade, tourism, investment, and Rwanda’s growing role as a key East African connectivity hub. #FactsOnRwanda
