3rd Report - Nepal Earthquake

6th day after the destructive 7.9 Earthquake hit. We now have intermittent electricity but often on half power, so water-pumps. fridges, etc can't run.

Life is not back to normal with the Peoples mood being very sombre.

Government is still hindering Rescue efforts as well as denying urgently needed help from landing at VNKT &/or held at the airport denying permission for delivery???

Good morning Soave_Pilot, Thanks Brother - Below.

Hey Fareastdrive, sure is true, they are here in full force driving brand new Landcruisers, stay in exotic palaces or 5star Hotels & draw enormous salaries from Management above. One Manager here draws $usd45,000 per month & lives in a huge 6 bedroom house filled with servants & the finest oak furniture; obscene waste of donations.

Hi helonorth, this article is filled with lies. There was no scuffle or fight between Trekkers & Villagers. There was no CoPilot or any Pilot taken hostage. Sadly a disturbed & disorientated, drunken local stumbled out of the forest into the Tail Rotor as the machine was about to lift-off, killing him instantly.

Be Happy we are alive
