As an aviation geek I was especially excited about landing at Paro Airport, which is supposedly one of the most dangerous airports in the world to land at. I&#039;m not sure if &quot;dangerous&quot; is really the right word, but perhaps more accurately it&#039;s one…</p>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Thank you so much for posting this!  We are going to Bhutan in less than three weeks, and ever since I heard that Paro was one of the most dangerous places to land, I've been a wreck.  Seeing both videos, and other remarks, has certainly put my mind at ease and put things in perspective.  Of course, when I see the mountains that close I might be needing that underwear that's under the seat.  :0)]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Thanks for your video of the landing in Paro.  I was in Bhutan from 12-16 March and being seated too close to the left wing blocked my view.  Besides our flight was delayed 8 hours due to "snowfall" the previous day so we go there around 6PM under very grey skies.  But even so I was ecstatic to be there, and I loved seeing the snow-capped mountains that we passed. Watching your video just made me pine for Bhutan again as I now start to cull the '000 of photos I took that really do not do justice to the place, the people and its culture.  I love Bhutan.  I think everyone should go and visit it at least once, and learn for this beautiful country.  Thanks again.]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[In 2002 I was in Miri, Malaysia at a conference and a group of 20 of us decided to go to Mulu caves for the weekend.  We booked a Vision Air flight (not sure if they still operate).  Weighed upon checkin and the flight had 24 seats.  Some locals in our group had taken this trip before and with their 'inside knowledge' knew that if the weather was good and pilots cooperative we could request they take a few extra gallons and few extra minutes and fly between the mountains and through the valleys enroute.  Wow, was I crapping myself or what as we weaved between mountains and seemingly just brushed the dense canopies of the wild jungle trees below whilst having an awesome view of sheer cliffs and Rocky Mountain outcrops.  

Not sure if any else has experienced this or if it would still be possible some 15years later.  My knuckles were white as I clenched the arm rest!!]]></content:encoded>
