Default Dont Fly Nepal Airlines

Their "maintainance" is a little taken on faith

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/6979292.stm

"Nepal's state-run airline has confirmed that it sacrificed two goats to
appease a Hindu god, following technical problems with one of its
aircraft."

If I hadn't fixed my bike I think I would have been thinking about that.

Well it works for them, and to be honest, it also used to be a requirement to install Solaris................

Was that the series where they showed that plane having the turbines clogged up by volcanic ash near Haiti? I only saw that episode, but it was really good.

yeah, that would have been one of them. Glad I'm not the only one. They are running repeats of the old ones (I think that there has been about 4 series intotal).

Another one you might like then is 'Seconds from Disaster' - this show does reconstructions of major disasters like Zeebrugge, Mont Blanc tunnel, the big department store in South Korea that fell down. One for the diary me thinks.
