Looking at that second to last picture I think that dog needs to change his diet.

diet? looks like fuel to air mixture or compression issue in that altitude. If that dog needs a name I have one.

Change his diet indeed - I've heard of $hit a brick, but that's ridiculous...

his name could be Rortorplan, depending on his appetite and guard dog instincts.


To the pilotographer, sorry for being a bit silly (likely that I am just jealous!) and thanks for the fantastic pictures with amazing depth and quality in the landscapes, plus showing so much true dignity for the people.

Another set of great pictures

I wonder if the company is going to keep operating the 206 since that is the only civilian 206 in Nepal. VF, do you know if the company is going to replace the 206 with 350 series once its time to retire; or bring a replacement 206?

Happy Landings!

Namaste gcpilot8

Thank You Naar keep maintaining & operating the 206. It's our best money earner in our depressed competitive market

Cheers

The competition sure is getting fierce in Nepal with Shree Airlines ordering quite few 350s
