Hey Ian Corrigible...Yep thanks I know ole Mate Jas very well :cool: he is a really good Guy & great Pilot ;)

It seems only the contracted seasonal drop ins do rescues worthy of mention in Nepal :ooh: my 1,289 rescues don't count, 54 above 21,000' don't count :ugh: Capt SG a Nepali has done over 2,000 rescues also don't count :( Capt MF Italian has done 25 rescues another contracted for the season drop in, is also splashed all over the global media for his few efforts :eek: praise be the skewed one eyed media :yuk:

Happy Happy Landings

Hey krypton_john Nepal certainly needs more talented Pilot's like Capt Jason, He can do what most local Pilot's cannot :confused:

Nepali aviation is undoubtedly the most unsafe in the World with a corrupt authority that does nothing but take black money to look the other way. Maintenance that barely exists, doing the barest minimum to get by. No training being conducted in any fixed or rotory companies, except Simrik being the only company in Nepal attempted to conduct some training :suspect:

Hello VF,

Does 9N-AJI has a chance to fly again ? :(
.

Looks like it'll need a new TR drive, at the very least. Still, maybe VF can scavenge himself another set of bear paws... :E
