Firts jackcarls0n, my condolences. **** happens in our jobs and in some places more often than in others..
And it is common for the pilots to fly into IMC without proper IFR routes in the terrain based on heading and GPS
That was the main issue when I was there . All domestic routes in Nepal are still VFR only correct ? and the GPS is a portable Garmin not issued by the airline(s) ?
Or has this changed recently ?
