Kathmandu (TIP): Captain Manish Raj Shakya, the lone survivor of a deadly plane crash in Nepal that killed 18 people, was saved after the aircraft’s cockpit was sheared off by a freight container seconds before the rest of the aircraft went up in flames, a report said on August 1.
Airport Security Office Ram Dutt Joshi said: “We rescued Shakya from inside the container.” Doctors said the pilot was “free from danger” and can speak. He can also consume liquid food.
Meanwhile, Nepalese authorities on Thursday recovered the black box of the aircraft that crashed here a day before and handed it over to a probe team formed to inquire into the tragic accident that killed 18 persons, including a child. (PTI)
