Three crashes in three months There have been three helicopter and fixed wing aircraft crashes over Nepal's skies in within three months. This does not include the Shangri-la Air aircraft that went missing today. A pilot of a Karnali Air AA-350 B2 helicopter survived a crash at Makalu base camp on May 29. Ten passengers and crew of Asian Airlines MI-17 are still missing after takeoff from Makalu base camp on May 31 at the end of the spring climbing season. The lightly coloured Russian helicopter which probably crashed against a Himalayan cliff has not been sighted yet. A Twin Otter of Skyline Airways crashed against a hill at Surkhet on July 17 killing four passengers and crew. Concern has been repeatedly expressed over flight safety standards in Nepal. nepalnews.com br Aug. 22
