Please spread the news among your tourist american and other international friends to boycott domestic nepalese flights. Never even think of flying Sita air . Sita air should be court martialed in the international aviation market.

30 July 1998; Alliance Air HAL/Dornier 228-201; VT-EJW; Dornier 228-200; near Shikharpur, Nepal:30 July 1998; Alliance Air HAL/Dornier 228-201; VT-EJW; Dornier 228-200; near Shikharpur, Nepal: The aircraft was on a scheduled domestic flight from Cochin to Thiruvananthapuram, India. Shortly after takeoff, the aircraft pitched up uncontrollably, stalled, and crashed into a building. Improper maintenance led to a malfunction that caused an uncommanded downward movement of the horizontal stabilizer and subsequent control problems. All three crew members and three passengers were killed. Three people on the ground were also killed. The aircraft was on a scheduled domestic flight from Cochin to Thiruvananthapuram, India.

So, is there any updates from the Sita air plane crash? History shows the truth will never come out. Innocent travelers life at stake again!!
Any real man out there? Any real investigative journalist out there (of course not a nepali)? For someone with b*lls, interested in investigative journalism and making documentries can actually embark on making a project to reveal the naked truth about Nepal airlines corporation, TIA and privately owned commercial nepalese airplanes to create some international pressure. They should either meet the international aviation standards or just perish!!!

Yes; I heard peoples were gathered on the streets to protest the Sita Air.
This time lack old tires people were vandalizing, No automobiles were parked in any streets because of the fear of tires stolen by the protestors.
Pictures comming soon.

aviation bro, there has to be some underlying reason for the carsh. as you mentioned, the bird would have been chopped into pieces and people are also speculating that the aircraft may have been carrying more load than the limit. if the aircarft was overloaded, as soon as the engine failed it must have spun out of control.
NTSB would most likely not be a part of this investigation since there is only 1 American fatality but i wish they would take part. i heard that a British team is confirmed and Chinese investigation team is deciding whether to join the team in Nepal.
i do not know how the aviation training works in Nepal but I sure do hope that pilots are recurrent on their aircarft and have recurring training upto par.
Heres another instance when a bird is sucked into a jet engine on take off. The plane takes off with one operational engine and lands safely.

Biwash sathi,
That’s the very good point you came up with. It could be MTOW( Max takeoff weight) issue too being Dornier 228s MTOW is just 5700-6200 which is not a whole lot. Really not much info on its engine either (Garrett TPE 331-5-252D). I have seen engine like Pratt & Whitney’s PT6 (turboprop) that got filter on inlet duct so bird ingestion wouldn’t be possible. At this point, I speculate one engine failure due to bird strike and pilot couldn’t regain control being flying in very low altitude. Just my two cents.

Do you also have the data about what went wrong in each flight that led to the mishap? Do you see any clustering of cases? Anything in common at all?

Summary:
|
After experiencing difficulty in deploying the flaps while approaching Katmandu, the landing was aborted. The ATC did not have radar service. After some confusing exchanges between the tower and the aircraft, the crew headed north instead of south to begin its second approach. The aircraft flew into a near vertical mountain wall at 240 knots. In the final seconds, the captain assessed the Ground Proximity Warning System warning as false. The accident was caused by a combination of occurrences, errors and actions by both the crew and ATC. The initial problem with the flaps, the lack of radar service, a misread chart by the crew, communication difficulties and the use of non-standard phraseology among other items led to the accident.

Summary:
|
After experiencing difficulty in deploying the flaps while approaching Katmandu, the landing was aborted. The ATC did not have radar service. After some confusing exchanges between the tower and the aircraft, the crew headed north instead of south to begin its second approach. The aircraft flew into a near vertical mountain wall at 240 knots. In the final seconds, the captain assessed the Ground Proximity Warning System warning as false. The accident was caused by a combination of occurrences, errors and actions by both the crew and ATC. The initial problem with the flaps, the lack of radar service, a misread chart by the crew, communication difficulties and the use of non-standard phraseology among other items led to the accident.

Lack of crew coordination, insufficient emphasis on emergency training, inadequate enforcement of the requirements of the operations manual and a lack of supervision during loading preparation.
