      @@norivaljunior6117 is this the one you need too get a special training to land on?
      i would also say courchevel is on the list, but i believe the higher elevation of lukla would make landing on it harder since you need more airspeed

    Excellent video! Thank You! In Lukla there are no go arounds, you either land correctly or die. Also, in case of an engine failure, a fatal accident is also guaranteed. That is why is considered one of the most dangerous airports in the world.

    @carlospetry2316 8 месяцев назад +7

    Such nice compilation! Must´ve been a lot of fun for an avgeek. In case of engine failure during T/O, there´s plenty of altitude to bury the plane "safely" onto those valleys down there. The engine failure during landing is a no no... no room for a go around and that threshold looks hard as a rock! Cheers from Brazil

    I've been here in 2019, January is winter, the weather is unpredictable, so that day we can fly or not. We have to wait patiently, there is no certainty of departure, so we must always be ready.
    When we approached to land we were between mountains, we didn't know where the runway was. Only a few moments before landing we realized that there was a runway ahead
    Adventurers or mountain climbers must try, at least once in their life, the very interesting journey from Lukla airport to Everest Base Camp ... I love Lukla and EBC forever ...❤️

    I was there over 20 years ago we flew with Yeti airlines . We were delayed flying in due to cloud. We asked why we were delayed and were told due to the cloud the pilots won’t fly…why not ? Because there are mountains in the clouds 😂. Nepal is a beautiful country and the people are so friendly a magical place to visit and the mountains are beautiful.
    Yeti airlines were shut down the week after we flew back under safety grounds lol 😂

  • @vedymin1
    @vedymin1 7 месяцев назад

    Single engine helis, are they safe enough to fly around these mountains like that ? Most planes that land there are twins. Its also interesting that most shut down the engines almost immediately after turning off the runway, not much of a cooling period for the turbines ?

  • @tomsamuelson8512

      Approaches are fun at both of them, but at St Barts you do at least have the option of a go-around if you mess up. Here you don't have to nose-dive down a hill to get onto the runway, but you're going to go 💥 into the mountain if you don't brake quickly enough. At least the uphill runway should help to slow you down 🤦
