T- shirts tend to be problematic after immolation.

This is the usual substitute ...

Final report came put last month.


On 28 December 2023, the final report was released. It reiterated the preliminary findings that the accidental change of position of both condition levers to the feathered position resulted in the loss of thrust, leading to the aerodynamic stall and crash. Some other contributing factors are also found, mostly human errors due to a high workload, lack of appropriate technical and skill-based training, ineffective crew resource management (CRM), lack of sterile cockpit discipline, and the non-compliance with standard operating procedures (SOP).

It is nose up, which is why I think everyone instinctively thinks it looks like a stall... But the *Listing* coupled with nose up, and the behavior of the plane so dramatically at the end --no pilot can input that dramatic flip in that timing. It really looks like something LARGE came loose in cargo bay and was teetering for a bit and then just subsequently tipped causing the flip/imbalance. Perhaps it was shaken loose by landing gear and precipitated by that. It's just eerily similar to another crash involving a dash8 which is a very very similar model plane, and I mean eerily, as in that plane looks the same and behaved the same way. If i can pull the flight number of that other crash I'll post it.

Did you miss the bit about "The final report is out" followed by a summary of its findings?

Yep, both engines were feathered instead of flaps 30. Attached is accident report.

Nepal is dirt poor and it's reflected in the quality of their industries. Most countries don't allow Nepalese planes to operate. There are frequent plane crashes.

People say FREE TIBET without understanding it would also be poor and backwards AF like Nepal and Bhutan, two of the poorest countries on earth. Because they have no natural resources to export and have no industry or advantages to attract money and resources in, unlike the Swiss.

Nepal Airlines are considered across the board the worst, most inept in the world, and are actually banned at many western airports.

Informative video... everyone died due to pilot error.

Damn you could hear them cursing the pilot while burning in the second video
