The mere fact that about 90% of the traffic at the Tenzing-Hillary airport is made of Dornier 228 and De Havilland Canada Twin Otters forces a high respect in me for these models.

This is like operations on aircraft carrier. Minus all that coloured vest crew that's seamlessly working on the deck. Very tight and dangerous working environment. Good job guys.

Is there any landing aides at all there like Vasi. Or even a Vor, Dme. I certainly haven’t seen a Vasi.
@rustyrust8045 жыл бұрын
don't know much about airport technology but as far as i know, there are no aides. I know this because there are no landings if pilot cannot see runway. There are cases of tourists stranded at this airport even a week due to fog around airport. I think atc of this airport is handled by just one employee.

@sudarshanrajbhandari3914 жыл бұрын
They are low mountains, probably with no names. If you walk for about a day and a half, you will get the first glimpse of Mt Everest as you ascend to reach Namche Bazaar (3400m), a major stop with a lot of outlets. From Namche Bazaar you will get a better view of the famous peak. However, if you climb about 500m, you reach Hotel Everest View (holds a Guinness world record as a star hotel situated at the highest point in the world) from where you will get a panoramic view of the majestic Himalayan peaks including Everest, Ama Dablam, Nuptse and Lhotse.

DC 3, 747 or 380 can land there but not in one piece. They would normally call that a suicidal crash landing. If they need to land within the airport perimeter then they have to pitch the nose down in a vertical decent... even so, some pieces might spill out of the airport. Hope that helps.
