This was a bucket list thing for me and two days before I said to Chenty maybe we should not bother as we will be flying out from the Kathmandu Airport and we will see it when we leave but after talking to a few people they said that the plane leaves in the other direction so we decided to do it but at a cost of $160.00 each it was a tuff one to do!! But then Kathmandu has been pretty cheap at about $50.00 per day

Once in the air the view was fantastic |
The total flight time was one hour. I must admit that I was a little disappointed that we didn't get closer I think I was expecting to fly around the TOP!

What a great name for the Airline |
I think if I want to get closer I will have to come back and do the 18 day base camp trek
Any body want to join me??

Every one gets a window seat |
Inside the plane we were allowed up to the cockpit to chat with the two female pilots and have them point out the different peaks.
