Nepal’s new airliner comes packed with relief supplies

Nepal Airlines took delivery of its second new A320 in Hamburg yesterday (April 29) and, taking advantage of the planned delivery flight, German relief agencies loaded it with 5 tons of relief supplies for the earthquake stricken nation. A team of doctors and nurses will also take 10 seats on the inaugural flight.

The Hamburg-Doha-Kathmandu flight might leave as early as today—the schedule depends on when a landing slot can be opened for it at the quake-damaged Kathmandu airport. USA Today has MORE.
