I-Aerobility ibonelela 'ngamava obomi bonke' izifundo zokubhabha zolingo kubantu abaninzi abagulela ukufa nabakhubazekileyo kangangoko kunokwenzeka. Ikwabonelela ngeentsuku zokubhabha ezibonelelwa ngenkxaso yeminye imibutho yesisa yabakhubazekileyo kunye nomyalelo weendleko kunye noqeqesho lokubhabha ngenqwelomoya kubantu abakhubazekileyo.
Abathathi-nxaxheba kumsitho wanamhlanje wonyuso lwengxowa-mali baquka amagosa ezokhuseleko, amavolontiya kunye nabasebenzi abasebenza kulo lonke elaseHeathrow. Bonke baxhamle kwinkqubo entsha yesikhululo seenqwelo-moya esandul' ukusekwa yoqeqesho lweSidima noKhathalelo, egxile ekuphuculeni iihambo zabakhweli abanokukhubazeka okufihlakeleyo nokubonakalayo. Umsitho namhlanje ukwabhiyozela inkqubo entsha yesigunyaziso ye-Heathrow yeenqwelomoya, eza kubona abakhweli abafika kwisikhululo seenqwelomoya bedityaniswa ngokuzenzekelayo nezitulo zabo ezinamavili ekungeneni kwinqwelomoya, xa besihla.
