Best Month For The Langtang Kyanjin Helicopter Tour
The Langtang Kyanjin Helicopter Tour is open all around the year, but people prefer making this tour during the spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November) seasons.
During the spring season, the winter snow starts to recede slowly and gives a contrasting color of green canopy and different shades of blooming flowers to blanket white snow. Moreover, nature awakens from deep sleep, spreading its fragrance to the lush forests of rhododendrons, offering a spectacular view from the sky.
Furthermore, the majestic mountains soaring above you look more than exquisite and graceful after the snow of the chilling winter. Additionally, you can witness the yaks grazing in the Kyanjin village. This can give you more insight into the life of Himalayan altitude.
Similarly, during the autumn season, the Langtang Valley takes on a reddish-brown hue. The entire Langtang area appears to be smiling from the skies as it sheds its leaves and ripens its fruits. Moreover, the sky is clear as the clouds have been swiped away by the monsoon rain, offering you the spectacular sight of the panoramic mountains. On top of that, the festive season in the Langtang region during autumn adds a new flavor of culture and tradition to your Langtang Kyanjin Helicopter Tour.

Safety and Weight Limit for Helicopter Flight
The weight restriction is intended to guarantee helicopter safety and compliance with aviation laws. Similarly, the manufacturer specifies the maximum permitted takeoff weight for each helicopter.
As a result, depending on where it is flying and how high it is, a helicopter may have a different maximum takeoff weight and operating scale. But most of the helicopters have the maximum takeoff weight of about 2250 kg. The smaller-sized helicopters used in Nepal usually have a weight limit load of around 350 kg to 500 kg.
Similarly, the maximum operating altitude ranges between 10,000 to 25,000 feet. A flight will include five passengers and a pilot for the weight distribution.
