A nice line-up of C-17s operated by the 62nd Airlift Wing, McChord AFB, WA.

The passengers are about to board and BD297 will soon be on its way down to Leeds.

The ground crew are almost ready to button-up the aircraft as its duties are finished for the day.

Passing through 11,500 feet on approach to Kathmandu from Bhairahawa on the border with India with some interesting weather showing on the radar

This exotic machine was one of a pair of Y12s seen at Pokhara, performing services to Jomson in Nepal's Mustang kingdom, at 8,800ft known as one of the most dangerous airports in the world and therefore a flight-sim favourite. First served Aero Bengal as S2-AAR from 1998, moving to Nepal in 05.07 but since became B-3842 with China Flying Dragon Aviation. Has "Made in China" embossed proudly across the control yoke!

Gorkha Airlnes, slogan "Fly With Us The Gallant Way", certainly found a crazy way to present their titles on the right side of the tail! One of two Do228s with this local carrier and previously flown by Borneo Airways and Corporate Air in the Philippines

One of four recently delivered at the time of the photo (three from US Air Express and one from AA). Retaining their smart leather interiors, they are soon started to appear in Yeti's attractive full green scheme

Delivered ex-Kenn Borek Air from Canada via BHX to Nepal in 9.98. Were it not for the clouds which form over the mountains every morning, there would be a nice view of the magnificent Annapurna in the background of this shot

Buudha Air's aircraft, like many in the country, have their titling in Nepalese on the starboard side

One of an initial batch of four Jetstreams delivered to Yeti from the US in mid-2006, clearly showing her American Connection. By early 2008 had been repainted in Yeti's smart green and gold colours and formed part of a fleet of seven J41s
