‘Settlements would destroy if…’: Yeti Airlines crash eyewitnesses
Eyewitnesses of the Yeti Airlines plane crash said that it was a close call for them as the airline crashed near their settlement and caused a bomb blast-like sound. “The aircraft was tilted at an unusual angle and moments later, I heard a bomb-like explosion,” Kalpana Sunar, who was washing clothes in the yard of her house, told Kathmandu Post newspaper. “There was so much damage at the incident site, but since it happened away from the settlement, there were no casualties or any damage to the settlements,” she said "Had the aircraft fallen just a bit closer to our home, the settlements would have been destroyed,” the newspaper reported. “Suddenly, there was darkness all around due to the smoke,” said Samir, adding, "It looked like the aircraft’s tyre would touch us as it fell.” Another eyewitness, Bainsha Bahadur BK, said that if the aircraft had come straight, it would have crash landed into the settlements and caused more damage.
