Piloting DO-228 KATHMANDU to Extreme LUKLA AIRPORT | Cockpit Views

It is common knowledge that LUKLA in Nepal is one of the most dangerous airports in the world as there is only 1 way in and 1 way out. On the way in you have to aim exactly for the short runway or you hit the terrain and if you miss the start of the runway you have no go-around option and a big wall at the end of the runway. On the way out you have no way to stop once you start the takeoff and a huge drop down the mountain if you don’t get airborne. With that being said enjoy this JustPlanes video showing you a roundtrip flight on SITA AIR Dornier 228 from Kathmandu to Lukla and back with all the cockpit views, a cabin window view on landing in Lukla as well as the airport overviews of the same plane landing and taking off. The complete download it nearly 5 hours long and has many more flights in/out of Lukla as well as around Nepal. FULL COCKPIT FILM INFO FILM TRAILER FLIGHT DECK VIDEOS
