Hopefully, someone turns President Trump's attention to two pilots currently being improperly jailed in Guinea.
AVweb: U.S. Pilots Detained In Guinea During Fuel Stop
New York Post: US pilots jailed in Guinea during fuel stop now asking Trump to step in: ‘Very scary’
Two American pilots have been imprisoned in the Republic of Guinea for six weeks — after authorities said they violated the country’s airspace for a simple fuel stop, The Post has learned.
Fabio Nicolas Espinal Nunez, 33, of Ewing, New Jersey and Bradley Scott Schlenker, 63, of Chicago are now asking the Trump administration to step in to secure their release as they remain locked up since Dec. 29 in a prison in Conakry, Guinea’s capital city.
Perhaps one of the aircraft carriers on their way to the Gulf could make a brief stop.
The ATC tapes show they were cleared to land, but they've been jailed anyways on ridiculous charges without much action being done to free them from their captivity.
That should change.
