NATIONAL NEWS - A young man in the north of Pretoria was recovering well after losing both his legs when an airplane crashed into a dairy farm earlier this year, reports Pretoria North Rekord.
The 20-year-old Thabang Moloto and another employee of Moorddrift dairy farm were seriously injured when the chartered aircraft, a Convair 340, crashed in Kameeldrift in July.

Moorddrift dairy farm spokesperson Cathy Moyes said this week that both were recovering at home.
“Thabang I know is doing well,” Moyes said.
Pretoria North Rekord was previously denied the details of the injured men and their families, seemingly due to the continuing investigations into the crash by the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA).
Moloto and the other employee, whose identity was never revealed, were working in the barn on the dairy farm when the aircraft crashed into the building.
