The Boston Globe's Invisible Ink: Hiding a Himalayan Plane Crash

Nepal Plane Crash Invisible Ink

Never saw it in my printed paper -- just as the pilot never saw the mountain?


"Americans among 14 dead in Nepal crash" by Associated Press | August 25, 2010

KATMANDU, Nepal — A small passenger plane heading to the Mount Everest region crashed in heavy rain outside Nepal’s capital, killing all 14 people aboard, including four Americans, a Briton, and a Japanese national, officials said.

The private Agni Air plane went down Tuesday near Shikharpur, about 50 miles south of Katmandu, said Ram Bahadur Shrestha, area police chief.

The German-built Dornier turboprop airplane was carrying 11 passengers and three crew members. It was headed to Lukla, a popular stop for trekkers and mountaineers, when cloud cover forced it to turn back.

Ram Bahadur Gole, a villager who witnessed the accident, told the Avenues Television network that the impact broke the plane into several pieces that were scattered on a hillside.

I'm sorry, readers; however, every time I read about or see photos of a crash and I see wreckage the first thing that runs through my mind is the LACK of WRECKAGE in that field where Flight 93 allegedly crashed on September 11, 2001.

I humbly admit I thought nothing of it at the time, although several people I know did question that the first day; however, it was QUICKLY FORGOTTEN in the SWIRL of events that were to come.

It wasn't until YEARS LATER when 9/11 Truth really started to out that the lack of wreckage in Shanksville pointed to a much darker story surrounding that fateful day.

Tri Ratna Manandhar of the Civil Aviation Authority of Nepal confirmed there were no survivors. Manandhar said there were four Americans, one Briton, and one Japanese national aboard, while the remaining passengers and crew were Nepalese.

Agni Air said the foreigners were tourists....

That very well could be; however, given the TWA 800 and 9/11 lies I never believe anything a MSM newspaper has to say about plane crashes.

These are the same folks who are more concerned with promoting tyranny based on lies they helped facilitate rather than the truth.

Lukla is the only airstrip in the Everest region. Few travel there during the monsoon season, however. It is little more than a runway carved into the Himalayas at 9,200 feet.

Does seem like it would be dangerous.

--more--"

At least the Globe will cover the investigation, right?
