This airport is treacherous to say the least. I flew there in a Global Express a few years back. The visual approach was a bit demanding but fun, this is a beautiful place to go. The only 3 IFR approaches are (RNP AR) which terminates as a (cloud break procedure) meaning the airplane and crew need to be certified and trained. The only other way to get in is to be accompanied by a locally qualified safety pilot (Druk Air pilot in our case). Locals are really friendly. A hike to the Tiger’s Nest sacred buddhist temple built 450 years ago is worth the effort. Happy and safe flying to all

The physics, of this : The atmospheric air temperature, from the hills/mountains, causes thermal up-down AIR drafts. Also, consider the side winds, if any, curving around the circular valley - the Larger Scale, picture. This pilot, knows the area; and he has done this, more than several times. It appears, he followed the wind , moving toward this direction (camera ) . I see no wing yaw adjustment, for sidewinds. HE did a splendid approach, ' feeling '' his way in, and then a spot-on landing. Very fine, sir ; well done. !

"When skills are paired with passion” 😃 Really like how the pilot has made full use of the terrain for this as spectacular as smooth descent. Somewhat amazing they went `round the corners´ without going in steep curves (yes, I know, aircraft with passengers aboard, of course 😉). Appears like the camera perspective suggests distances and width of the valley are smaller than in reality. … perhaps I’m also bit too much biased by watching clips of UK Mach Loop low altitude training 250ft at 500knots … 😅 But this here is equally stunning - Thank you so much for sharing!

The world's most dangerous and most treacherous plane landing is into Lukla in Nepal. Stone wall at one end, a several thousand foot drop at the other and a very short runway. Nothing else comes close. My Glasgow born dad has been into it 2 - 3 times. Trekked in the Himalayas. In Scotland, there are 282 munros, he has done them all, got the tie. I have done at least 4. He is 81 and still hillwalks, up Ben Lomond recently. He has been right up at the Chinese border in Pakistan, even stepped into China.

@robsemail 2 ай бұрын

I guess the difference would be that Tenzing-Hillary Airport in Lukla is not an option for an airbus. A lot of those mountain airports in Nepal are fun. The flight from Pokhara to Jomsom is a big thrill. The Jomsom airport is not so obviously dangerous except that it is at very high elevation and features a short runway. Only small aircraft can make the flight. The aircraft are so small they never rise above the mountains, so the flightpath runs right between them, over a valley which gets pretty narrow in a few places. It is thrilling because I’ve never flown so close to mountain peaks before, and because the plane can’t go above them you feel kinda vulnerable.

I’ve flown in and out of this airport. Not as a pilot, as a passenger. The thing is, you have to make a stop at another airport in India, just across the border. The terrain there is flat as a pancake. Then you take off, climb, and the mountains are just right there out of nowhere. You get over some, but then dip down in these valleys and you’re weaving around. You realize you’re in the Himalayas, the tallest peaks in the world, the air is thin, and while jets often fly at this elevation, they’re usually cruising, not swooping and turning. This is like the passenger jet version of Tom Cruise in Top Gun: Maverick: "We have to get low! The terrain will confuse their targeting system!" Aerodynamics are a wonderful thing.

I have flown in here for a couple of fishing trips there are only a handful of pilots that are qualified to land in Paro. The flight is amazing

Cualquier piloto no está certificado para entrar y salir de este aereopuerto debería estar certificado debe ser una experiencia increíble estar en el avión viendo los hermosos paisajes mientras aterriza 😃👍🙏🇻🇪🇻🇪

Apuesto a que el aterrizaje es aún más difícil en español.

I used to work at the old Kai Tak airport in HK. Iv'e been straight onto the flight deck of many Airlines and seen the flight crew shaking. They do a brilliant Job.

Clickbait title. Perfectly flown approach, wheels down within the touch down zone, good application of reverse thrust and lift spoilers, and stopped well within the length of the runway precisely at the intended taxiway.. Nothing "heart stopping" about it. On the positive side, this was a well executed video and a joy to watch!
