Hello there
Yesterday I decided to fly one of my favorite routes; also one that I have a love/hate relationship with
. Paro Airport serves the Bhutani capital
, and is imfamously known for its difficult approaches both to the north and south due to very mountainous terrian on all 4 sides surrounding the field
.
Since starting playing IF in 2018, I have flown to Paro over 100 times; and including this flight I have only landed on the first attempt 6 times. Anywho, please disregard the self incrimination of my crappy flying, and enjoy the pictures with one of my favorite
liveries
!!

Here’s our lovely bird that just pulled into Kathmandu’s international ramp after a 3hr flight from Dubai
! Since being built in 1986, this lovely
and BB Airways! Snagged this picture out the window of a Turkish A330 that brought be to Nepal from Istanbul :türkiye:!
V1… Rotate just about 1/3 of the way down Tribhuvans’ runway 20
Leveling off at FL310 for this quick hop with the mighty Mt. Everest off our left wing! We were cruising a mere 2,000 ft (610 m) above the summit
Starting our initial descent into Paro over the Jigme Khesar Strict Nature Reserve
Time to get into the realll sketchy parts of the approach
But hey, atleast our cheeky 757 is being very photogenic
Making the last few final turns to the airport
Short final with @Waxyscorpion308 spectating in his Highly Realistic (NOT) Southwest Max 8
Capturing butter landings is all about the angle
! You’d never know from this picture that I touched down at -750vs
Safely parked at the gate
