Lukla Airport, also known as Tenzing-Hillary Airport, is a small domestic airport in the town of Lukla in the Khumbu region of eastern Nepal. It is one of the most famous and most dangerous airports in the world due to its short runway and sloping runway, surrounded by high terrain on both ends.
Lukla Airport is situated at an elevation of 2,845 meters above sea level in the Solukhumbu District of the Sagarmatha Zone in northeastern Nepal.
The airport has a single asphalt runway that is about 527 meters long and 20 meters (66 feet) wide. The runway has a significant slope and is positioned on a steep incline.
The airport is known for its challenging approach and departure procedures due to the mountainous terrain and unpredictable weather conditions. The short runway length and the lack of modern navigational aids make it a demanding airport for pilots.
Lukla Airport primarily handles flights to and from Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal. The flights are operated by various domestic airlines, and they provide essential transportation for trekkers, climbers, and locals.
Lukla Airport serves as the main gateway to the Everest region, a popular destination for trekkers and mountaineers heading to Everest Base Camp and other Himalayan peaks
Due to the challenging conditions at Lukla Airport, flight schedules are often subject to changes based on weather conditions, and travelers are advised to check with airlines for the latest information.

Consider, the extending the runway into air on that side as well as the opposite side of this runway using a cantilever beam support, for safer takeoffs and landings, run way safety margin is needed, for runway level crosswinds and air turbulences.
