Sling
Jd...why sling't? Just to the left of the fuselage, there's some nice wire to stich the wings back on with. Sufficient speed-tape to cover the holes, her'n there. Perhaps a new windscreen, gojuice to fit.....viola, jello KTM!
PS: there could be a issue with the propellar as well. No big problem, there's probly one hanging
on the wall of the club house
Awesome flicks again again, VF !

New players in the market?
VF Dai
In this post http://www.pprune.org/8771489-post2281.html
is that a new helicopter company next to Dynasty?
Also, did Shri Airlines add some more AS350s, as I can see at least two parked behind Dynasty's heli?
Excellent pics...stay safe in the winter

Sadly that Porter has only a few hundred hours on the airframe
& like all air-crashes in Nepal (there a many, many here) the left over, remains will be scrapped, rather than sold to fly again

Thanks for the heli updates VF Dai
Did Fishtail get rid of some 350s, since there are only two?
I hope that the CEO does not get too focused on the new FW business and neglect the heli operations.
Looks like all the operators in Nepal are switching to AS350 completely. Manang was MI operator and so was Shree. What happened to the two BK117 owned by Simrik?
Also, what is that Robbie doing up there alone in the cold besides sightseen in VNPK? Honestly, what kind of work does the Robinson do in that altitude?
Cold is brutal in Ktm, stay warm and safe.
Om Shanti

More Coffee please & make it strong

Your most welcome Dhai
Yes 4 years ago an FTA; B3+ had a fatal crash on Ama Dablam
I think the FW side will get ALL the focus & the $$$'s from now on
Some wise operators are looking for L4's with the HATR
Twins just don't work so good at ultra high altitude/DA, nor $$$ viable here, so Simrik sold the 117 back to the Kiwi's
The Robbie doesn't belong here or anywhere, it fluffs around with 2 x PAX for a 20min scenic departing from 2,000' back to the same at VNPK
KTM is not as cold as Siberia
��Om Shanti Shanti Shanti��
