The black box of the Tara Airlines plane that crashed in Nepal was found on Tuesday. The bodies of all the 22 people killed in the accident were brought to Kathmandu for post-mortem. After this incident on Sunday, the discussion has started once again on the risk of flights in Nepal. According to the Aviation Safety Network database, this was Nepal's 19th plane crash in 10 years. Experts say that due to the change in weather, smoke, fog, and mountainous terrain, Nepal is considered the most dangerous country for flights. According to the 2019 Safety Report of the Civil Aviation Authority of Nepal, Nepal's mountains pose a 'big challenge' for pilots.
Nepal has the 14 highest mountains in the world including Everest. Flying in Nepal in bad weather is no less than a danger. Smaller planes are also more commonly used to reach greater distances and mountainous parts of Nepal. The Civil Aviation Authority report said that aircraft with 19 seats or less are more prone to accidents.
There were 22 people on the flight, including 4 Indians.
The airport in Lukla city in Northeast Nepal is known as the most dangerous airport in the world. Its runway is on a rock between mountains, with a large moat at the end.
If we talk about the Tara Airlines plane that crashed on Sunday, it had 19 passengers and 3 crew members. Out of which 4 were Indians. The search and rescue team of the Nepal Army has found debris on the hill in the Sanosware area of Mustang.
The aircraft was 43 years old. The Government of Nepal has formed a 5-member commission to investigate the Tara aircraft crash. This commission will investigate the causes of this incident, as well as give suggestions to avoid such incidents.
The aircraft hit the hill but did not catch fire
Interacted with Inda Singh Dana, a local citizen who was the first to reach the crash site. Dana said – The debris of the plane was scattered in the area of 100 meters, but it was very difficult to reach here. Seeing the wreckage of the aircraft, it is clear that there was no fire in it, as there are no signs of burns anywhere. He had hit a hill.
There is snowfall and dense fog in the area. Getting the dead body out of here is also very difficult at the moment. Since there was no fire when the aircraft crashed, the faces of all the victims of the accident are recognizable.
