Let L-410 in Nepal

Postby as099mw » 31 Jul 2014 17:36

Goma Air, a Nepal based airline, ordered two Let L-410 UVP-E20 aircrafts. Demanding flight tests were necessary to obtain CAAN (Civil Aviation Authority of Nepal) certification before entering commercial services in the area.

A factory owned aircraft was ferried from LKKU (Kunovice, Czech Republic) to Nepal in December 2013 and, besides other tests, made the first in history visit of the type to VNLK (Lukla). The first of the two L-410 aircrafts has been delivered in July 2014.

Watch a great cockpit video of the event.




You can enjoy the L-410 flight from LKKU to VNKT and VNLK via LGIR, HESH, OERK, OOMS and VIJP with final leg from VNLK to VNJS. Some 24 hours of flying...

Visit AirSource Bid Division and go to Test Flights Category.
Or use a direct link.

Expires: 31-DEC-2014.

Have fun. :)
