Thimpu Airport
Bhutan
It is tucked in between the Himalayan Mountain Range and there is no easy entrance tot h runway. So the pilots have to hover around the airport and descend in a whirl until the speed is such that the pilot can handle a quick, short drop down. I probably would not have thought anything about it but someone brought this fact to my attention about a week prior to my departure. There are youtube videos that show how dangerous this feat is. So I watched in fear and admiration.
