Nepal Plane Crash

Postby 3WE » Wed Feb 24, 2016 3:17 pm

Posting because of our vow to address more incidents.

Sadly, I am prejudiced about these. I speculate something to do with shoddy maintenance AND training AND hiring practices AND management that places the airline firmly on Flyboy's no-fly list (yes Flyboy's sound-logic list, not Evan's alternate-reality list).

Probably not much else to see or say. Speculative frown :-(

Pity, greatly enjoyed our trip to Nepal which included flights with Yeti, Buddha og some airlines I've forgot. Challenging terrain, weather and airport facilities.

Tara Air Twin Otter from Pokhara to Jomsom, 20 passengers + 3 crew, no survivors :(.

Per a posting there, the title of this thread should now be plural.
