The World's Trickiest Airports


[post_page_title]Paro Airport, Bhutan[/post_page_title]
This airport is so tricky to land in that only around 20 pilots are qualified to do so. Paro sits surrounded by the extremely high Himalayan Mountains, with a very short runway for planes to land on and stop at. Larger planes have an especially difficult time landing due to their size.

The track is only 1,981 meters long, and ends with the bank of the river Paro Chu. Landing here is restricted to daylight hours and weather conditions stipulating that it is clear enough to land.
