Air travel has become so popular that you will hardly find a place on earth, where you can not reach by air. This obsession with air travel has led to mushroom growth of airports around the world. When I look at the pictures below, I ask yourself this question. “What on earth, they were thinking , when they put that landing stripe there?”
Let’s put it in another way. Draw a 3 feet wide path on the floor and ask a person to walk over it. he could go dancing all the way. Now take that same 3 feet path, hang it between two high rise buildings and ask the person to walk across. 98% will decide not to walk over it. Same is true with these Airport Runways.
All of my pilot friends agree that the photos below are an airline pilot’s worst nightmare. These are indeed world’s most difficult landing approaches. It needs a lions heart ( or Instrument Landing) to land an aircraft there.
