History
[ edit ]
The airline started operations in October 1999 with oneDe Havilland Canada DHC-6 Twin Otter aircraft.[3]
Its name is derived from Shangri-La , a fictitious place described in James Hilton 's 1933 novel Lost Horizon .[citation needed ] .
In 2001 Shangri-La Air and Karnali Air were partly merged into Necon Air . Shangri-La Air was operating a fleet of six aircraft, two Beechcraft 1900Ds and four De Havilland Canada DHC-6 Twin Otters . Necon Air took over the Beechcraft,[2] and Shangri-La continued operating the DHC-6s.
In August 2002,[4] after the loss of one DHC-6, the airline operated only two aircraft.[5] In 2007 its fleet consisted of only one DHC-6, until its closure in 2008.[6]
