View of Mt. Everest by Plane

If you're out of shape, broke, or have time constraints, but still want to see Mt. Everest, I recommend you book a flight on Buddha Air to at least say you saw it. The hour flight from Kathmandu gives you a breathtaking panoramic view of the Himalayas. There are no FAA rules here as the pilots invited me into the cockpit so I could take this picture. I'm glad I got a chance to see Mt. Everest without having to risk death to climb it. Who am I kidding, there is no way I could even make it to base camp. (Note: If you're heading to Bhutan from Nepal on Druk Air, you'll see the same view on your flight so save your money.) To book a flight: http://www.buddhaair.com/everestexperience.html
