Flying in Nepal is exciting for the pilots are skilled at landing in remote airstrips and fly in seemingly impossible monsoon weather without benefit of IFR beacons. The old adage that they don’t fly when there are clouds because “the clouds have rocks in them” doesn’t seem to hold these days, especially where the route is reasonable. Their safety record is enviable.
Small STOL (Short-Take-Off-and-Landing) aircraft provide service to small airstrips in many parts of Nepal. Helicopters can also provide service to trekking sites. There is increasing helicopter access to other places in the hills, not just airstrips but district centers. Many of these sites are not popular with trekkers but can be useful for jumping off.
