Favourite Approaches in IF (Can suggest too)

So I have been thinking that during my time on IF I have found some of the approaches in IF to be either challenging, beautiful, fun or all of the above. So I thought why not ask the community what theirs are? This could lead to some users basing flights off this to see for themselves! You could be as specific as you like, even down to runway number and specific Arrival and Approach. Or you could be vague and just say the airport, entirely up to you! But here are my top 5, they are not in any specific order, they are just in the order I remember them.

  1. Runways 22 & 23 at Tokyo Haneda, Japan
  2. Runway 03 at Langkawi Airport, Malaysia
  3. Runway 10L at Caracas Airport, Venezuela
  4. Runway 20 at Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia
  5. Any Runway at Nouméa Airport, New Caledonia

Honourable Mentions

Runway 09 at Kaohsiung Airport, Taiwan
Runway 24 at Aomori Airport, Japan
Any Runway into Da Nang Airport, Vietnam
Any Runway into Rarotonga Airport, Cook Islands
Runway 02 at Nadi Airport, Fiji

This is true but something about landing on Runway 22 & 23 just does it for me, I do not know why.

If not the bay, it’s awesome if you fly past Fuji.
