The narrow body of Nepal Airlines Corporation, which is about to fly to Hong Kong with 154 passengers, has been grounded again on Tuesday. The narrow body Alpha Kilo Whiskey with Nepali name Sagarmatha, which was grounded at 12 o'clock on Saturday night, has been repaired with spare parts brought from Turkish Airlines on Tuesday morning.
After three days, 154 passengers were going to Hong Kong on the narrowbody flight, while 42 passengers were scheduled to return to Kathmandu tonight. According to a pilot of the
corporation, the vehicle hit the ladder of the ship that was ready to go to Hong Kong, and the corporation's engineers repaired it after seeing a problem with its hydraulics. However, after receiving a complaint that they were not repaired according to the standards set by the ship's manufacturer, the flight inspector who came for inspection from the authority found that the rules were violated after looking at the repaired documents, and the ship was grounded.
"Inspectors from the authority went to check on the basis of a complaint that the seat was glued with unauthorized glue while repairing the hydraulic seal of the narrowbody," Gyanendra Bhul, co-spokesperson of the authority, said, "No spare parts or other auxiliary materials can be repaired outside the standards of the ship manufacturer. We have submitted all the documents. According to Jagannath Niraula, the general manager of the airport, 154 passengers going to Hong Kong have been kept in the lounge of the Radisson Hotel inside the airport because the corporation does not have another spare plane. When I contacted Rina Rai, the head of the passenger service department at the airport, about whether to fly the passenger from Nyarobody on the corporation's only flight tonight, or to put them in a hotel, she did not pick up the phone.
Corporation's technical spokesperson Divendra Pun said that since the damaged seal on the ship was removed from America, the ship will be repaired and put on flight on Wednesday . The corporation has two narrowbody and two widebody aircraft . A widebody has been stranded in Italy for two months for extensive repairs (seacheck). Sending for repairs next Wednesday . On the other hand, only one of the two TwinOtters was on the domestic flight . That too is badly stranded in Nepalgunj .
