Toncontin airport, Tegucigalpa Honduras

[Ge0graphic]

Nice !!! Great Pilot !

[perberge]

Nice "strike" on finale and perfect tuchdown.

This kind of pilot skills never stops impressing me.

[IMediaCorp]

I am not an airline pilot (wished I were) but,.. I could be wrong here but I always believed that the 757 is one of those flexible narrow, wide-bodied jets (dual Isle) that airelines will use on low-medium haul routes in order to take more passengers, based on the popularity of the destination.

There seems to be different schools of thought with this approach and landing but if the airline makes a profit on this route, they'll send a 757 over, say a 737 with a pair of GREAT pilots

[allevian]

Good Pilots?

Tell me: Was the Landing-Distance-Required within available RWY-length???

I doubt that!

Shitty Airline to send a 757 to this short airfield.

Even the touchdown ( that was absolutely necessary) was illegal.

[blast616]

Actually good pilots is an understatement, more like great pilots. 1. the landing distance in Toncontin is over 7000 ft, witch is plenty for a 757. The landing was a bit short, but givin that a go around could result in a disastrous situation, the landing was completely orthodox. It is not an easy thing to bring a jet airliner on a 45 degree turn to final on a shorter then average strip, with crosswinds terrain, and 160 people on bored. GOOD PILOTS

[allevian]

Well- a great pilot never brings him/herself into a situation, where he needs his great skills.

As you say, good touchdown.

Did you know, that terrain clearance is vital for a safe operation? Obviously not. So tell me: Why do almost ALL airlines prohibit to fall below approach-proifile, when it is not safety-relevant, as you seem to believe?

And why the hell sould a go-around lead to a "disasterous" situation, when it is an all-day standard-procedure at all good airlines?

[blast616]

I do know that because I am a pilot, and a particular airport, as toncontin if you do not approach low, then u will be in the mountain, because u will miss the runway. The PILOT didnt get himself into this situation he is just doing as he was instructed by his airline, and a go around could result in a disastrous situation because if u were observant enough to see the BIG FRICKIN MOUNTAIN at the end of the runway and if these pilots suck as much as u say, that could result in a collision

[allevian]

Well, I am an airline-pilot as well, congratulations.

And this airline you are so convinced of sends its aircraft to airfields, where a go-around of a 757 in VMC could result in a catastrophe???

I wouldn´t call that "great" but "gambling with lives".

So keep doing what your airline, whatever it may be, is telling you.

Guess, why LH e.g does not sent a A306 to "EGLC" (london city airport).

Cause it is inacceptable, even it may be possible.

That divides the good from the other airlines.

es cierto yo soy de Honduras cada vez que se aterriza en ese aeropuerto se aplaude pero ojo solo en ese aeropurto aconsejo que si viajan a honduras que hagan escala en san pedro sula.

[taniapoleth]

no pues que buena publicidad les haces amigo hondureño...hum pues no pareces hondureño si hablas asi de su principal aeropuerto

[TepDavid25]

La Ciudad ke nacie!!

[Prophet3175]

Holy Crap man!

[elcielollora]

Bueno yo he aterrizado al menos unas doce veces en Toncontin, y creanme no importa si vienes en un avion grande o un pequeño, siempre asusta. La ultima vez realmente me cague. Ahora mejor me regreso en busito.

[ellococarnal82]

hay marica

[jotalegend]

Man why did you wrote the description in french.. if most honduran ppl speaks spanish and english...

[Argoust]

Lo malo es que no hay otra manera de aterrizar :S

[cheliluv]

i hate this airport!! i almost cry when i land there!!

[datolo182]

uy lo veo y pensaba que era fly simulator uy no el que planea viajar alla cuantos rosarios hay que rezar para no pegarse un buen porraso, muy buena por el piloto

[tiapapita]

Dicen que cada vez que aterriza alli un avión , apalauden y echan porras al piloto.

Mira que peligroso!!

[costarican1986]

Con razon, una vez viaje ahi y todos aplaudian y yo no entendia porque...

[VivaElChorizo]

ay tico pendejo y es que el aeropuerto Juan Santamaria no es Peligros? si alli uno se caga con las rafagas y los vientos cruzados en la pista en epoca de lluvia uno se baja con los guevos en la garganta por la batida del aterrizaje

[superrabbi2000]

Diay guevon! Por lo menos la pista es suficiente largo. En el SJO aterrizan 747 facilmente. En Toncontin ni suenes! Pero si Mae caundo es temporada de lluvia en CRC es muy dificil atterizar ahi y mas con neblina! Muchas de las veces tienen que aterrizar en Panama.

[burningcell]

ya vieron el cagadal que fue ayer.

este brother se salvo no jodas

[masttrim]

i've landed in this airport probably a dozen times. it's scary!

[tdc310]

Tremendo video... tremendo piloto...

Saludos TDC

[lfdomv]

Así es el actual aeropuerto Toncontín de Tegucigalpa, cuya pista es muy corta y no apta para los aviones más grandes como el Boeing Jumbo 747 y el Airbus 380. Es el más peligroso de Centroamérica.

[lapwiz]

That is one dangerous airport. Note to self, no landing in Tegucigalpa at nite!

[1972phoenix]

que pedo¡¡¡ lo veo y no lo creo,no yegaria a ese aeropuerto ni aunque me saliera gratis el boleto¡¡no manchen,hagan un nuevo aeropuerto¡¡

[hotdog747]

estupido maldito ese estava aterrisando de emergencia sapo bruto de mierda

[1972phoenix]

nolocreo,ya que en tu comentario lo dices,que esta entre colinas y que tiene que hacer un viraje etcetera,y en un comentario que te pusieron hace unos meses en ingles dices que es un vuelo comercial y que es la unica forma de aterrizar ahi,entonces por que me sales que fue de emergencia, y mi comenterio no lo puse con afan de que te molestara,perodisculpa si fue ofencivo mi comentario,saludos bye¡

[Wampa38]

[hotdog747]

[kv2818]

[poldoneitor]

se ve que el piloto es experto en lo que hace porque esa aproximación es muy difisil

[ERICAMUR90]

i love the vid

[dbarl64]

great Vid

[shoarmavlees]

Is that a commercial flight? Very dangerous!

[ledog713]

Yes. A commercial flight, like everyday in Tegucigalpa. This is the correct and the only manner to land on this airport.

[wolf570]
