BUDDHA AIR PLANE CRASHES

A ill fated Buddha Air airplane returning from a mountain flight crashed this morning near the capital in Lalitpur district, killing all 19 persons on board.
The Beechcraft 1900-D of Buddha Air, otherwise known for its well mantained and modern fleet crashed into farmland just 20 km south of the capital, 10 of the killed were tourists from India.
The plane had lost control with the airport tower at 7:31 am and had gone missing before crashing at Kotdanda. A Nepal Army recue helicopter had returned as it could not land near the crash site due to bad weather.

It's the probably first gig of a world rock star in Nepal. Bryan Adams along with hist group will perform in Nepal's capital Kathmandu.

As there is no adequate equipement in Nepal itself, the organizers will bring it all the way from India for the big event staged for February 19, 2011, at the Dashrath (National) Stadium.

Mostly the younger generation in the capital but not only, is already exited what likely will be the biggest Rock event in Nepal's history, attracting further hard core fans from around the world to come to Nepal, which also celebrates a Nepal Tourism Year 2011.

And even do the tickets are high priced for Nepal with about 30-50 US $ (Rs 2,000 and Rs 3,500), there will be little doubt that the stadium is filled in. The organisers also hope that the event will be an opener for more future international stars to come and perform in Nepal.
