Crazy takeoffs and landings in Tenzing-Hillary Airport, Lukla, Nepal, Gateway to Everest

[@Vitaliy_MOW]

Браво пилотам! Посадки выпоненны с ювелирной точностью! Молодцы!!! Bravo to the pilots! The landings were performed with pinpoint precision! Well done!!!

[@sarique2000]

I travelled in one of these helicopters 8 years ago on my way to Everest view hotel. Amazing trip but risky.

[@deplepfan]

That's cool

[@mattwoody1089]

Why would you say it's risky

[@Peterdom393]

Maravilloso lugar . Es fascinante....💙💜💚👍👍👍👍👍

[@Pepeekeo808]

In winter1980 I hiked in from Lamasungu about 80 miles away from Lukla. After viewing Everest from Kala Patur I hiked back down to Lukla for the flight back to Kathmandu. The landing area was just a grass field with grazing Yaks.

[@ChadDidNothingWrong]

are you crazy you coulda been eaten by a yak

Liar

[@Pepeekeo808]

@@billyclark7079 Liar how? Have you done the full Everest trek from Lamasungu? Were you there in 1980? Did you not know Lukla landing strip was just a grass field back then? What exactly is the lie, Billy?

[@stephenblessed92]

Are there take offs and landings that aren't crazy at this airport? Also, I like to know who was the first to land at this location. It had to just be a rocky hillside when that happened. And how did they get all of the building materials to this site.

[@zNexino]

I just knew that, this is the worlds most dangerous airport.

The twin Otter can land and takeoff in less than 2000 feet. It is an excellent performer.

[@stevestann595]

The landings are way trickier, the pilot has to slow the aircraft just enough to make the turn for the taxi, if he stops hard he'll be stranded on the hill, and if he doesn't, he'll be hitting a building

That slope looks dangerous but I think it's the only reason this all works.

@Joshua Mohammed i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

[@rogershane8676]

@Joshua Mohammed It worked and I now got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D Thank you so much, you saved my account :D

[@joshuamohammed4093]

@Roger Shane glad I could help xD

[@jimdean294]

I dont know. There is lit. No room for error. That should be helicopter only maybe single engine

[@grahamwalls9379]

Your heart is in your mouth . taking off or landing there . Looks dangerous just on film .

[@jukee67]

I am crazy but not this crazy. Some may not realize how dangerous taking off and landing in this spot of the world is so I can only suggest looking into it. Those of you in the comments that been there, I know are followed around in life by a wheel barrel to keep you know what off the ground and in tow. No thank you. If you lose your pilot rating anywhere in the world and own a plane like these, who will question you or ask to see your papers after touch down and taxi?

You dont wanna get gas at this airport.

[@nascarET]

whys that

[@ratmousebastard]

@@nascarET you don't want to add any weight if you can avoid it, fuel is heavy. Just need the least amount of gas to get you to the next, less dangerous airport. You'll have a better chance of not blowing you're only one chance you have to take off at if you're not loaded to the gills.

You can land but you can’t ever leave! Lol

@@Skikyro yeah, and to be honest you probably couldn’t really land either. I was probably drunk when I wrote this.

You were so anxious to post this video that you didn't even check your typing. As far as I now, "carzy" means nothing in English. What's wrong with you "modern" people? Why the haste?

“As far as I now” As far as I know. You’re right: spelling is important! 😳
