Angel Dry-Landslides

Hey TWT, yes the after shockers (sadly) still continue, just 4 or so a day now, instead of 4 or so an hour as it was in the first 2-3 weeks after the Big E.......But now flying, there's an extra A in the SWAAT check's to survey the area & the landing pad for the risk of????? Rock Avalanche, Ice Avalanche, Mud Avalanche, or Soil Avalanche........not so easy as I'm no Geologist nor Seismologist

note the crumbling of these steps from recent EarthShake.....

VF,

A question please.

Who pays your company to fly the aid missions ? The government or NGO's, or other ?

Hey Arrj, private caring individual clients & NGO's pay for our relief work. Though Government promises to pay, they still owe for the Thorang La Rescues almost 1 year ago. The system here is rotten throughout.....

Strangely for a dish lacking any dead animal, that looks delicious. I think I would just close my eyes and imagine the beetroot was mince.

The pilot's diet is becoming even more interesting .... Dogs react to smell rather than visual signals
