<p>The flight from Istanbul landed at Kathmandu’s Tribhuvan International Airport with fire and smoke apparent on the right landing gear.</p>
<p>Emergency crew responded and controlled the fire and passengers were safely evacuated, according to airport officials.</p>
<p>The airport was shut down on Monday morning.</strong></p>
<p>There were 277 passengers on board the Airbus 330 jet.</p>
<p>Several planes bound for Kathmandu were put on hold while officials were investigating and attempting to clear the only runway available at the airport.</p>
<p>Nepal experiences relatively frequent plane crashes as its mountainous terrain and variable weather make flying conditions difficult.</p>
<p>In 2015, a Turkish Airlines jet landing in dense fog in Kathmandu skidded off a slippery runway shutting down the airport for several days.</p>
<p>No injuries were reported, and the plane was later towed out of the airport and converted into a museum.</p>
