Plane out in Himalayan location (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nepal

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'himalayan location' is the definition.
'Nepal' can be an answer for 'location' (Nepal is an example). I am not certain of the 'himalayan' bit.

'plane out' is the wordplay.
'out' indicates an anagram (out can mean wrong or inaccurate).
'plane' is an anagram of 'NEPAL'.

'in' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for nepal that I've seen before include "Gurkhas' homeland" , "Small lake" , "Mountainous country" , "Himalayan kingdom" , "Himalayan republic" .)
