Challenging Airports - VQPR

Well I thought I'd seen some challenging runways on fsx, but I have done a couple of Royal Bhutan flights in the Himalayan mountains.

 

VNKT is bad enough in poor weather.

 

VQPR is worse, and is more suitable for twin props, but Druk Air fly A319s in and out all the time.

 

Glad I've never been in there for real, it would be scary. There is an excellent freeware Bhutan airport and valley scenery also to help out in our virtual world.

I believe AVSIm has a good set of scenery for VNLK as well, including the gradient/slope for the runway. That one in a Dash 8 is still a white knuckler.
