The pilot was landing at the new airport in Nepal that just opened on Jan 1. He was coming from the southeast and was originally cleared to land on Rwy 30 which would have been a straight in approach. He requested a change to Rwy 12 which require him to fly a different approach in the opposite direction.
The plane appeared to be configured correctly for landing and the engines looked like they were operating although the final investigation will determine this from the flight data recorder. What is clear from an aeronautical analysis is that the plane stalled close to the ground and entered a left spin that was not recoverable. Either they got too low and slow on an instrument approach or became disoriented and tried to raise the nose when they shouldn’t have.
The weather was good and they were not in the area of high terrain that was a problem with the old airport which was closer to the mountains.
Mr.GG2 who is a former pilot said when that stall warning goes off its really hard to remember not to pull up on the yoke.
