The crash occurred while the Summit Air plane was trying to take off from Lukla for Kathmandu, said aviation officials.

Following the crash, authorities suspended services at Tenzing Hillary Airport at Lukla, the gateway to Mount Everest.

The airport is often referred to as the world's most dangerous because of the short runway and difficult approach.



It's open only to helicopters and small fixed-wing aircraft and sits at 9,334 feet above sea level.
