HUMLA, Nov 13: A technical issue has been seen in a Nepal Airlines Corporation (NAC) aircraft scheduled to fly from the Simkot Airport in Humla to Nepalgunj in Banke.

Passengers, who had already boarded the plane with their boarding passes, were deplaned due to the aircraft's technical problems.

The NAC airplane, with callsign Nine N-ABU, was preparing to return to Nepalgunj after its flight to Simkot scheduled for eight o'clock this morning. Despite passengers boarding the plane, they had to disembark due to the technical issues, causing inconvenience as the flight was delayed.

To address the problem, a technician has been summoned from Nepalgunj to carry out necessary repairs. The Simkot Airport Tower has indicated that the aircraft will require some time for the repairs. As of now, the specific nature of the technical problem in the aircraft remains unclear.
