Nepal Airplane Crash in May 2022
June 3, 2022
Written and published EST, evening, June 2, 2022
What is known thus far:
Crash was in Mustang District.
Investigations and analyses regarding the incident have been underway by authorities.
The airplane is described by some sources as 'a US-Bangladesh plane' (https://www.setopati.com/from-paper/140813); Tara Air turboprop Twin Otter; and 'built by Canadian aircraft manufacturer De Havilland' (https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/22-bodies-recovered-nepal-plane-crash-autopsies-begin-rcna31289). [Complete and actual information may still be in process of being distributed to he public.]
The events occurred about 4 days ago from today.
Plane's contact with tower may have been lost in the time before the impact.
Photos of the wreckage indicate very light, yet present amounts of pyro-affected debris.
Reports have all victims were recovered; there were 22 or about according to other news sources. Reports seem to exist based from translated Nepali text, that some saved their lives by jumping out a window (reference setopati.com).
It is not entirely clear, as put in HCN at this time, whether all on board the plane from the point of take-off were victims, or whether some survived; it appears that about half the plane load survived, and one of the figures was 22, either survivors or the victims, as of 4 days ago. Details, such as ordinary capacity of the plane, might be described at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Havilland_Canada_DHC-6_Twin_Otter article. It is expected that it is considered a smaller plane.
Among the victims were 2 that were German.
Black box has been reported to have been recovered.
There have been other airplane crashes in the past over the Nepal skies.
It seems this incident was over what may be briefly described as a somewhat mountainous, hilly area; the reverse of an urbanized area.
We know that terrains with these features are known to have incidents over them, the reasons for the phenomenon may be more difficult to discern.
(HCN) Comments: Concerns may exist when an incident involving a small machine occurs, whereat, there are larger machines which could be subjected to similar possibilities if all corrections if there are any are not made, and, or there are certain warnings that need to be abided by, perhaps more clearly known
