You don't want to have any engine hiccups on this approach.

There was me intently watching the first part of the video and wondering whether they would have to descend through all that cloud amongst the mountains to get there, not something I would want to see from the passenger window!! :doh:

Definitely not an airport to practice touch and go's!! :lol:

That's indeed a Do-228. They use Twin Otters as well.

Due to shortages and cutbacks the light at the end of the tunnel has been switched off.

I'm getting the same now, Joe.
Maybe they are worried about the latest restrictions on confronting material?
Proposal in Australia is to give jail terms for executives who allow offensive videos to remain on line.
This follows the NZ murders video.
