The Nepal Airlines Corporation(NAC) Building in Kathmandu,and its main base is Tribhuvan International Airport, Kathmandu. The airline was established in July 1958 as Nepal Airlines Corporation (NAC) on the same day in which Thai Air was established leading to be Nepal’s first airline as Royal Nepal Airlines. The airline’s first aircraft was a Douglas DC-3, used to serve domestic routes and a handful of destinations in India.

The airline acquired its first jet aircraft, Boeing 727s, in 1972.In 2004 the government of Nepal decided to sell off 49% of its stake in Royal Nepal Airlines to the private sector. As of May 2014, the airline operated a fleet of nine aircraft.
Nepal Airlines is included in the list of air carriers banned in the EU, as of December 2013.On 30 April 2015, Nepal Airlines received its second Airbus A320, Lumbini. The aircraft was filled with 5 tonnes of aid material to be flown from the Airbus factory in Hamburg, to Nepal on delivery of the aircraft.

The Twin Otter aircraft, operated by Tara Air, was travelling from Pokhara to Jomsom and lost contact with the control tower shortly after taking off.

Most of those on board were Nepalis. It is not clear what caused the crash.The plane was carrying three crew and 20 passengers, one of them Chinese and one Kuwaiti. Nepal’s aviation industry has a poor safety record.

Some say he’s half man half fish, others say he’s more of a seventy/thirty split. Either way he’s a fishy bastard.
