Landing at Paro International Airport (Bhutan) would be quite an interesting thing in a Cessna... but then, the national airline flies a couple of Airbus A319-115, and they land litherally zig-zaging between hills on final.
I wouldn't dare to do that in a flightsim...

Cool, thanks for sharing, I love this kind of stuff. Looks like something I would try in a flight sim though =) |

Operation is strictly visual and only during daytime, and only for certified pilots -essentially the ten or so crewmen of the national airline.

Psh.
Kai Tak Airport
Mariscal Sucre International (This one's dangerous because the pilot has to go over steep volcanoes surrounding the city and then perform a landing basically downtown).

Went browsing about YouTube for other such Plane landing things.
Here is a BBC Documentary about that water landing in the Hudson.
It is very good. |

Ok, just bringing it up... the plane knows better than to try and do the landing so it calls the pilot names right before touchdown

Now which of the Greek islands is it where the approach path means flying directly towards a cliff and then banking off at the last moment?
Probably not difficult for the pilot, but an excellent brown-trousers moment for anyone who can see forwards and hasn't flown to that airport before. |

It means "slow down" of course, but it's still funny.
