Старожил

Город Лукла в восточной части Непала, аэропорт имени Тенцинга и Хиллари, 27 мая. Погиб командир и еще один член экипажа.

Транспортный вариант L-410 не вписался в пейзаж при заходе на посадку. The Kathmandu Post пишет, что перед заходом погода резко испортилась - пошел дождь и появился туман.
Аэропорт считается одним из самых сложных в мире. Высота - 2860 метров над уровнем моря, с одной стороны - 700-метровая пропасть, с другой - горный хребет. Оттуда удобнее добираться к Эвересту, поэтому туристы/альпинисты его часто используют.

On Dec 16th 2017 in a press conference the accident investigation committee reported the final report has been submitted to the Ministry of Transport (editorial note: the final report has not yet been published). The committee reported that nearing the Lukla valley the crew was informed about heavy rain at Lukla and was considering to return to Kathmandu, however, was told Kathmandu was overly busy with many aircraft in the holds. Shortly afterwards the crew was told the weather at Lukla had improved and the rain had stopped. The aircraft entered the Lukla Valley but entered dense fog as soon as it entered the Lukla Valley and remained in that fog for about 4 minutes. 64 seconds before impact the first officer sighted the runway, the aircraft was at 9100 feet MSL at that time (Lukla elevation 8900 feet MSL), the aircraft was about 15 degrees off the extended runway center line. The runway disappeared from view again, the aircraft descended to 8500 feet MSL, the captain attempted to correct the error and began to climb the aircraft, however, with the landing gear out the aircraft slowed, the stall warning activated 13 seconds before impact. The aircraft struck a small tree with its left hand wing before impacting ground about 130 feet short of the runway. The commission stated that even if the crew had attempted to go around, they would not have been aware of their position in the narrow valley due to the dense fog, the captain has no time to carry out a recovery procedure. Both the flight crew as well as the airport authority violated standard operating procedures. The airport authority should have monitored the weather situation and temporarily closed the aerodrome. The crew should not have flown into that weather fluctuating every few minutes. It can not be ruled out that the captain was affected by fatigue. The commission believes the traffic congestion at Kathmandu was a contributing factor into the accident and recommended to review the situation at Kathmandu Airport with respect to traffic congestion. In addition the commission reported the runway in Lukla could be extended by 100 feet and recommended to do so.
