    Video from one of the most dangerous airports in the world.
    The airport was built in 1964 under the supervision of Sir Edmund Hillary. Tenzing-Hillary Airport is frequently referred to as the most dangerous airport in the world. Arriving and departing aircraft must use a single runway. There is a low prospect of a successful go-around on short final approach due to the terrain. The runway is 527 m × 30 m with an 11.7% gradient.

    at least 30 times i have been here. Lukla is gateway to Mt Everest, highest mountain earth. Only small aircraft (STOL base) that can fly to this airport. Difficult geographical makes it very challenging to land and take off. But surely it is most beautiful air-route in the world.

    This is the most dangerous airport in Nepal. It is literally built above a plain between the hills and actually is gateway to Mt. Everest. Your alternative is a week hike from pokhara or this. Once a pilot decides touch down, there is no abort or else you go crashing into the hill ahead so only most experienced and confident pilots are allowed to fly in here.

    This video is 10 years old, but it remains the best shot one I have seen over the years. Hope to fly into Lukla one of these days. I notice that most of the aircrafts in here are the Dornier 228. They must be from the batch license produced in Kanpur, India for the south asian market. The Indian army, navy and coast guard extensively use the type. I first saw this type in my native Mauritius where they are used by the coast guard to patrol over the vast swatches of the Indian Ocean, landing on sandy airfields on remote islands thousands of kms away from their base in Mauritius.

    Wonder why they bother painting the 24 at the top of the runway, no plane can land this way around

      I don't know, but every track must have a sign and a number.. :-)

      Even there is only one side for landing there should be call sign n that is 24

      Janice Ulaayu Angnatuk The only medium to connect lukla is by air so there should be cargo too💪

    Man they sure don't play around, they have the next plane loaded before the last one even took off, shit grayhound bus's dont even run with that sort of perfection

    5:34 Thank you Dornier engineers for the fantastic landing gear...I`ve seen stones make smoother landings.
