You may have seen the most glorious
views of the Himalayas from hilltops around the country, but
there is nothing that quite compares to a view from the sky.
Catch a mountain flight in the early hours of the morning before
clouds obscure your view and then; only then will you see the
true beauty and appreciate the immensity of this massive chain
of snow-clad mountains. The view leaves one speechless. The
hour-long flight over glistening glaciers and towering peaks
will have you glued to the window. The enchanting bird’s
eye-view of mountains from the sky is beyond one’s
imagination. Barely a minute after take off, the gigantic peaks
appear before you. First Gosaithan (Shisha Pangma) an 8,013m
peak comes into view followed by Dorje Lhakpa (6,966m) and
Phurbi Chyachu. Soon other peaks make their appearance one after
the other: Gauri Shanker, Melungtse, Cho Oyu, etc.
On
this excitement-filled flight, every seat is a window seat and
the pilot and crew help you identify peaks. Maps distributed
earlier show the mountain ranges seen as you fly. Each passenger
is also given a chance to visit the cockpit and photograph the
panoramic view that only the pilot enjoys. This is the best
opportunity for photographers. The climax however, comes when
the pilot announces the approach to Everest. The highest
mountain in the world still commands great respect as the sudden
excitement among the passengers stands testimony. A close view
of the Everest is the highlight of the day.
The
incredible beauty of the seemingly endless chain of mountains
leaves one in awe of creation. This is one flight you cannot
afford to miss.
