One Of The Most Difficult Plane Landings On Earth

Paro Airport, Bhutan, in an A319

Bhutan is a tiny, remote and impoverished kingdom nestling in the Himalayas between its powerful neighbours, India and China.

Almost completely cut off for centuries, it has tried to let in some aspects of the outside world while fiercely guarding its ancient traditions.

A319

Enjoy the ride

I've done this landing in Flight Simulator before. Wasn't that hard!

Ok.. try controlling a real bird without Complete Failure and Destruction on a place like this small and rough landing path.

Anyone could complete a Flight Simulator successfully but have your life and others on your hands and it changes things.
