That last minute turn at 200 feet AGL was made with precision and skill. Perfect alignment with the runway. That's not easy even for us with a lot of time in the Bus. Mad skillz sir. Well done.
He is cold as ice and knows the terrain every square inch. Knows exactly where to initiate the turn at 3:05 and then manouvering through terrain so close at bottom and right wong tip also. Had to keep an eye on the speed and also ensure he doesnt overshoot threshold mark by long margin or else there would be a go-around. Also had to safely pass the river and level the plane at last moment just before touchdown by maintaining centerline just few hundred meters before touchdown. Looked so scary towards the end but he made it looked like he was parking his maruti 800 in an open ground. Very proud of you Sir
Really enjoy your videos. No silly soundtracks or commentaries, just really stunning video and natural sound. Best way to experience Paro landing other than in real life.
I‘ve been there myself, super spookiest flight of my entire life, landing in Paro and arriving in the Switzerland of the Himalayas, how stunning. The pilots are especially trained former fighter pilots.
Au contraire. Paro, like several airports in the world require a specific endorsement to land at this airport. They’re not necessarily specially trained former fighter pilots, but they are specially trained. There are only a few pilots with the certification to fly there.
@@garybain2339 It does take special ability to do this approach. You're basically maneuvering and slaloming in between mountain range at approach speed (below 200kts, at landing config), at a very high altitude (+7000 ft) which has thinner air, so one mistake can potentially end your life instantly. It's like Calvi circling approach, but way way extreme.
The approach to runway 33 is far more challenging, but made look easy by theses guys. No automation needed.. Special certification required. Only a handful of airline pilots can land here. I'm hoping to go here next year to experience it. Great approach and landing. Thanks for sharing.
Imagine living in a place like this, waking up in the morning, looking out your window, and seeing those majestic, gorgeous mountains! All I see outside my window is an overgrown lot across the street, and my neighbor's driveway full of old cars out the north window. (The south view is my backyard, and west is a stand of woods, so those views are nice, but nothing like the freaking Himalayas! 😉😁💕)
Bumpy landing lol 😂 not smooth at all. And bumpy runway too. Nice the pilots made it safely though. Good work Captain & 1st officer and cabin crew. God bless.
Druk Air had the BAe 146-100 in use which I like so much. They wanted to order the latest Avro version RJX which was sadly cancelled. That was in 2002. NICE video of the A319! Huge like! Cheers Matt
watching that final approach from the ground was next level scary/awesome! crazy skills involved, props to those guys flying, just another day for them!
Very good video. Congratulations to the pilot and co-pilot of the aircraft and company. Very complex and dificult airfield and landing .To operate as a comercial airpilot in this kind of scenario represent a great skill,experience and responsability
That was incredible to watch! And I think the captain hand flew it in the whole way! At least, I didn't hear the usual sounds of the autopilot being switched off.
This is Flying with an capital F! These pilots are so highly skilled in landing and taking off from this airport. Only a few pilots are qualified to do so, and it's totally clear why.
I’ve heard they don’t operate at night and that diversions due to poor visibility are common since the approaches are 100% visual with no assistance of radars or anything
They don't fly at poor weather conditions or at night. Airplanes going to paro carry more than enough fuel to attempt 2 or more goarounds and still have enough fuel remaining to divert to gawhati airport or Kolkata airport or any other indian airforce base if they are in emergency. There is a lot of airports around bhutan that they can divert to and reach in 20-30mins.
Just right now checked flight radar to see their arrivals & bhutan airlines have a flight diverted to my city "ccu" (kolkata) they were to arrive at paro at 7:40am but they would be landing here probably at 7am as the distance has reduced quite a bit & the passenger will probably board the next flight that goes from ccu to paro at 9:55 or 10:40.
Just watched another video, a female captain landing a A320 at the same airport...no drama....completely relaxed....she was explaining to her young co-pilot the in and outs....and why the close proximity to ground alarms had to be turned off. So, Not a big deal for pilots that know what they are doing.
That’s my dad 😍🥰
Radhika Jayachandran be proud... thanks to him for this vod
Superb landing, your Dad does a great job!
Tell him that was one of the greatest landings!!! GREAT JOB!!
Oh..
Woowwww you must be so proud of your dad, only 18 Captains can land on PARO Bhutan and first officers not allowed to land the aircraft there

You don't even fly, fantasist.
Yes 👍
Very skilfully handled the like stall on short finals 👏👏👏😍
@@shamimkhan5874 Not sure what you're referring to. Speed was in "managed" mode the entire time. Airspeed didn't budge from Vapp.
Wrong, the very last left turn was at 100 ft (33 m).
Quite challenging, indeed!

Seriously the best landing job I’ve seen yet. A true professional

I doubt they are "specially trained" fighter pilots. It doesn't take any special ability to fly this approach.

@@garybain2339 There's literally only 8 commercial pilots allowed to land there.
I am here after watching it in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020
Yup
Back to COD with you boys. 😆
I'm here after crashing in msfs
yeah me 2:)
i cant even find the runway on flightsim. lol.

Couldn't agree more!
😂
That's an insane approach! Very skilled flying by the crew.
Soft as a bitcoin drop! Beautiful!
How does one describe the excellence of the piloting? Utterly brilliant!
Def good pilots flying into that airport
Wow! So beautiful! Smooth landing 👌😎.
Sxxe

@@harenrussel We all know you don't have a freaking idea but yeah, good luck with your pilot's journey :-) Smooth landing as fuck!
@@luco-games lol hater much ! Cheers ... happy New Year to u too ..moron
Very skilled pilot thanks you JustPlanes for this video! :D
Great pilots. Amazing skill .Beautiful Bhutan. Love to visit someday. Greetings from Sri Lanka.
Incredible flying. It was a bit harsh from the plane to call him a retard, I thought he did a wonderful job.
This is the comment I came looking to see and you did not disappoint. Kudos sir. 😆
The plane is just insecure and was lashing out.
Absolute concentration and professionalism. Nice.
Holy balls that was crazy! Slalom between the mountains, great control.
5:12
Whoa, imagine the view from that hause on the right!
GREAT approach and landing! True professional!
The best trip I've been on, I love Bhutan.

Flying through mountains would freak me out!
Excellent landing Captain. Proud of you. !
WOW! These guys are the pinnacle of airline piloting.

One can imagine Night landing negotiating these treacherous hills...
Great pilots.
night landings are not allowed here
they don't land night times, normally!
I'm pretty sure there are no night landings allowed there. At least for jets. For jets, it's day, VFR only. Just like Lukla. =PC=
@@pcowdrey there's no night landings for any kind of aircraft.
I don’t think night flights are allowed for obvious reasons.
Amazing skills and great landing ✈️
So beautiful I had to watch it twice!
The planes computers are freaking out like me and I'm not even there. Great landing!!🤣
Wow.. just getting back to wings level at 20-30ft off the ground. That is crazy! Great landing 👍🏻
Damn. Wow. Terrific 10/10 landing
Lovely landing x great video as always x love an god bless x
The captain buttered the landing. And I can’t even land smoothly with a normal ILS approach.
Are you a pilot..
Ajith 44 student pilot
@@rayanaltowayan9558 you are very lucky bro .. where is your training?
You're a steely-eyed missile man. Nice landing!
That was incredible to watch! And I think the captain hand flew it in the whole way! At least, I didn't hear the usual sounds of the autopilot being switched off.
It was all manual ( the approach and landing)
Magnificent skill by the pilots....
Wow, another perfect landing. Those are good pilots who land there.

Yup only about 15 captains are qualified for this approach. Not even first officers only captains allowed
Great landing.👍
I can’t imagine what this is like on overcast low cloud days. Or at night. I’m no pilot, just a traveler. Very impressive landing

Very impressive! Thanks for the ride chaps. :-)
Great video! Thanks!
Love this, but I'm curious: exactly who would dislike this video? What would be the reason at all?!
Wow ! Challenging Appraoch, more difficult than Innsbruck I think. Skilled Pilots 😎.
Wow! Very nice!
That's pretty awesome terrain to weave through.
Anybody else here after the 7/12/2021 viral approach? Came here to see what it’s SUPPOSED to look like
These pilots did an outstanding job
Actually that botched approach by the Indonesian charter jet was from from the southern end of the runway, this is from the northern end
Beautifully executed.
Very professional! Nailed it!
Always amazing to see that approach, greetings from Costa Rica!!!
i want to visit costa rica😓
@@Batman_the_greatest_Warrior You will love it :)
Fantastic video. What professionals!
That landing strip is tucked away for sure. Great job, pilots!
โอ้..อเมซิ่ง.ค่ะ..คุณทำได้.สุดยอด..
A curve few feet before the runway? Awesome job!
Smart, brave pilots! Thank you fir sharing this beautiful and dangerous landing!
Great vedio, great country and such pure air to breathe..!!
Good job
Amazing pilot 👍👍👍💞💝💖
Brilliant as always.
thanks.
What a butter landing!
Nice video💝💖💛💚👏👏👍
Amazing video. Thank you for posting it.
Well done !
Don't think I'd feel very serene flying into one of the most dangerous airports in the world to begin a visit to the happiest country on Earth!
wow ....superb pilots
Outstanding performance!
what a skilled landing!
Seems like shockingly dangerous. Why Bhutan made airport in such that place? Are they really don't have any flat land to safe enough for landing???
OMG, that approach is insane😳
Very cool! It's nice to see obscure Aviation!!
Cool calm and collected pilot, very nice landing sir. 😁
Better than spec!
Im really impressed.
Such beatifull landing!!!
Круто. После поворота сразу посадка.
This view look awesome well done beautiful view loving it
excellent perspective coverage JP!
Very nice
Wow. That approach is awesome
PERFECT LANDING...
The pilot of a great Master !
Very smooth landing
Calm headed, ace pilot.
Outstanding pilot!
Yo baller landing velicha
Totally awesome! Nice vid.

Smooth as silk
i really like flying into this airport...quite a challenge...but fun..
Omari Joseph However real life conditions can be quite challenging compared to the FlightSim
@@brocanova yes
A curva que tem que fazer e impressionante
Cool upload. Nice to see what I'm heading into in the simulator.
Glad you enjoyed it and good luck in the sim

Wow he just landed the plane like another walk in the park, hopefully I can have this skill
Id say that's a challenging landing! Good job!
Looks tough even on a clear day
