The propeller thins the air as the ultra-light lifts off from a small airstrip near Pokhara, and the valley unfolds beneath like mapped relief—rice terraces, the curving blue of Phewa Lake, and the serrated crown of Machapuchare. From the cockpit you feel close enough to read the shadows on Annapurna’s faces; wind and altitude push gently against the aircraft and against your sense of scale.
