  • I doubt if this is an A319

  • @rogerwerneckbass what other aircraft type have that exact GPWS?? Ofcourse it is an airbus.. and the only Jet aircraft that lands at Paro is A319,and it is flown by DRUK Air! other than that it Buddha Air and Tashi Air,but they only fly propliners... You can clearly hear this is a jet aircraft... do some research before saying things like that!

  • Perfect landing!

  • Pussys. There are hundreds of fields that are way harder. Buy the way in bad weather you dont go there..

  • A319 is quite big for this airport o0. But pilots are really good.

  • @lakimakromedia can there be a bad pilot?

  • @raggaresset yes like everywhere ...

  • @lakimakromedia I beg to differ actually... The requirements are so high to become a pilot that everybody can't be a pilot, which is different from where it comes to become a car driver and you can purchase your license. However, I am not a pilot and then shouldn't I either comment this.

  • @raggaresset If u have money u can get everything, of not everybody can be a piolot of mashine like this, and fly in places like this.

  • IMAGINE IN BAD WEATHER 

  • Did anybody else think that river was the runway. lol

  • This looks worse than the Tonontin approach in Hondoras

  • Looks easy (used loosely) during the day. I wouldn't want any part of that around night time though. haha

  • they make it look so effortless - only 8 pilots are qualified to do this? man, if i was on the flight, i would have to kiss their toes as i kissed the ground! thanks for the video! that is just sick!

  • If Chuck Norris was the Pilot, he would..

    move the runway to the plane

  • Comment removed

  • This is crazy. It takes more than half the video before you can even see the runway. Slow landing speeds barely above a stall, plus hard maneuvering and ground turbulence is insanity.

  • DOMINANT PILOT

  • Beautiful landing ! Threading the mountains.

  • Skills.

  • Bad ass!

  • FUCK THAT!

  • Wow! Sure enjoyed watching this one!

  • And Why does Anybody go There??

  • Vor fast 3 Jahren wurde das video hochgeladen. Ohh man liebe Bild.de habt ihr wirklich nicht mehr aktuelles ?:D

    Und so wie die das auf Bild.de beschrieben haben ist es auch nicht.

  • this looks friggin fantastic... in a hilarious and very scary way!! :D

  • Holy shit! I would love to fly that thing...

  • I do this in IL-2 daily. Piece of cake.

  • Ich komme auch von Bild ;-)

  • looks like fun!

    

  • Hier kommen die Deutschen Community :D

  • Really respect to the captain!

  • Wer kommt alles von BILD ?

  • @Farbcode0711 Ich komm auch von Bild leider :p

  • Landing is one thing ... takeoffs and departures must be twice as difficult ... at least!!

  • WOw, a very impressive landing. And the Bhutan landscape is beautiful.

  • 0:56 burning house?

  • That is incredible

  • Thanks guys and gals for your comments!

  • I hope they never have fog.

  • what the hell is so hard in that.. it's not even near a crash..

  • Skills

  • Ilta-sanomat..

  • Now that's some kick-ass piloting there. ♥

  • 50, 40, 30, 20 retard, 10

  • The Redditors are here..

  • @SamWeidt I can smell the prescence of bacon

  • like a boss

  • only 8 people are certified to land here.

  • Did that plane just call me a retard?

  • @A3roboy That means to pull the nose up so you land back wheels first.

  • @A3roboy It's a signal to the pilot to reduce engine power to idle

  • YOU ARE A FLYING GOD

  • Talented-ass pilots!

  • @TheAwesomeOne1ooo Talented ass-pilots you mean?

  • @Cr0aton God damn it I was going to say that. Ah well. Best friends? :3

  • That was the easy part...the hard part is getting it back into the air.

  • At first I thougt that if one actually is a pilot, it couldn't be so hard to land there just because there were some mountains nearby. Then I watched this.

  • Incredible video.. hats off.

  • INCREDIBLE SIMPLY INCREDIBLE! Woooo! :O

  • I would be scared as pilot to land in here by night !

  • @qiao12 Which is why it's illegal! Lol airport is only sunrise to sunset!

  • THIS IS WHAT I CALL PILOT SKILLS.... incredible landing...

  • one of the most difficult landing in the world. Check out my channel to see the the landing of Druk Air just outside the airport. You will see the scary impact on such a small landing strip!!

  • a piece of washing goes away from the house at 0:52

  • IF KADAFI SEE THIS VIDEO....

  • kai tak, concoctin, lukla ,funchal, st bart. st marten, paro ,kathmandu...so on , which one do you like?? for me i like all of them!!

  • WtF

  • Instead of Downwind, Base, Final, it is Upwind, Base, Final.

  • Several kind of flight like this happens every day :) ... It's really thrilling to be seeing the mountains so close. Enjoy this great news video by Ted Henry of Ohio, US on Bhutan hosted at lhayul(.)com

  • 2 people live in the house at 0:52

  • @kurono12ban That house is fucking huge.

  • Goodness gracious!! I thought this kind of landing would've been possible only in FlightSim, because aviation safety rules would've disallowed it - especially seeing how close the aircraft gets to the hill.

    Wonder how frequently they have aborted landings.... :P

  • the like bar is as big as lady gaga's penis. the dislike bar... well lets just say justin bieber would be lucky to have that thing.

  • oh WOW

  • that is a mightily impressive landing

    

  • thumbs up if you thought this was the best landing you have ever seen :D

  • this is drukair A319

  • why do 2 people dislike it

  • @4500intelx they like justin bieber...

  • I really wish my in car GPS sounded like that!

  • i would be scared to live in that house!!! it only takes one bad pilot and you end up with an airplane in your living room!!!

  • @andysim232 I would be scared to see that plane im my ASS !!

  • @andysim232 Yes but your living room would look fabulous

  • @andysim232 its a great party piece

  • @andysim232 Only 8 pilots on the planet can land there.

  • @andysim232 only a female pilot

  • Not fair that Airbus Pilots get called RETARDS by Bitchin Betty before they land everytime!

  • first time i hear that callouts include 5

    100...50...10...5?1

  • For all those people who are wondering as to why they put an airport at that location, this is in Bhutan which is a small country that is nestled by the Himalayan ranges. This most likely the flattest area they could find.

  • @mdayalan haha very funny truth ;)

  • Like a boss!! Well done sir! 

  • Engine out on takeoff, where do you go?

  • wooow, I never knew this fantastic, heavy airport:):)

  • I'd love to go spotting next to that house :O

  • Who's fucking idea was it to build an airport there???

  • this airport kind of reminds me of innbruck but with a cool approach

  • what an amazing approach!!

  • You could high 5 someone on the porch of the house at 0:49

  • 1000 ft. callout on the radio altimeter and the runway is nowhere in sight!!! 500 ft. runway still not in sight!!!

  • Comment removed

  • not even landing at old Kai Tak airpot could beat this one! I heard only 8 pilots in the world are qualified to land in Paro

  • Dear God. I am not looking forward to this next year.

  • great landing!

    

  • my favourite airport :)

  • I've landed here and believe me, the video will never be as good as the real thing. Amazing.

  • the approach is quite similar to kai tak's......

  • I whis there would be a nice scenery for flight simulator ^^

  • @FlugSimulatorXfan There is :') 

  • Realy?

    Can you send me a link please?

  • RNAV approach with AP engaged, right?

  • You know, I'm wondering if they could have possibly made that approach a little more challenging by orienting it at, say, 13/31.

    Damn. And I mean that from the bottom of my heart.

  • its a real privilege to be one of the 8 to 10 qualified pilots to land here considered to be the happiest place on earth!!!! bravo!!!

  • This is on my bucket list of things to do. You have to understand, this is the only international airport in Bhutan and only 8-10 pilots are authorized to land in this airport. Those people don't know how lucky they are, being so close to nature

  • wow...and they landed a little long too...

  • It's impossible take off with a A320 in the Flight simulator at this airport!!!

  • 0:53  Salut !

  • I didnt know about this airport until I landed there,.. freaked me out..banked left and right whilst skimming the tops of mountains.... the take off was also hairy with crazy turbulence scooping up from the mountains .

  • Один из самых сложных для посадки аэропорт.

  • Ive actually landed at that airport before and it's an intense series of S curves to get through the valley to the run way, unlike any other airport Ive ever been too.

  • and there is only 4 flights at that airport a day, two inbound and two outbound.

  • nice, its like LOWI ?

  • absolutely crazy!!!

  • I want to life in that nice house they passed on approach ! Must be planespotters paradise !

  • I think there isn´t an Localizer or Glideslope ;)

  • @jonnydelajonny nope... its strictly visual... too many obstacles for there to be one.... the pilots who fly there are specially trained and only fly to and from that airport.... i think in the documentary they said they only train a new pilot to fly there when an vetaran retires//

  • Amazing ... thanks for sharing ! that's one of some places in the world I want to see before I die :-)

    Just imagining what will happen if a B747 or A380 is flown to that airport ...

  • Amazing ... thanks for sharing ! that's one of some places in the world I want to see before I die :-)

    Just imagining what will happen if a B747 or A380 is flown here ...

  • amazing approach. gotta be the most interesting I've seen.

  • I really don't think these guys are retards if they can land an Airbus at an airport like that.

  • the best

  • hey i heard that even BUDDHA AIR ,, flies to bhutan paro airport ,, can u please upload some videos of buddha air in paro airport ,,,,i love to see it

  • This is my favorite airport on google earth flight sim.

  • i just spotted my dreamhouse

  • los Airbus demuestran siempre su potencial seguridad para cada empleo en lugares que solo pilotos con mucha experiencia hacen las aproccimaciones

  • exelente como siempre los AERBUS si son naves

    

  • Hello -- traveling on Druk Air into PHB soon and would love a cockpit view. How did you manage it? Ask the FA nicely? :o) .

    I'm not sure how strict they are/what the laws are, and whether or not asking nicely (or the fact that I'm in Business Class) will help.

  • Very nice place and very, very easy to landing!

    :-)

  • lol it looks like the cockpit is saying: 100......50...40...30...20....­retarts! :P (im jokin)

  • @pid0vs0you hahahahah !!!

  • @pid0vs0you It is saying retard. But it means to drop the throttle lol.

  • I've done this and was on the right side of the plane at the window and will never forget that. If your lucky enough to go to this amazing place, sit on the right and get a window seat. Also, there is a good chance the King or one of his Queens will be on your flight. By far the most amazing place I've ever been.

  • noise abatement, what noise abatement?

  • theres like 8 pilots in the world qualified to land at paro

  • Comment removed

  • i read in a magazin about this airport and about this airline with it´s special a319 XD that´s realy crazy !!! XD

  • nice vid, thanx for sharing!

  • C'mon !! The wake turbulances would bring the house down !!

    :D

  • Wow, closer that Innsbruck!

  • I know it's not what I think it means, but it was like 50, 40, 30,retard, 20, 10...

  • @fbplayer070 It's the signal for the pilot to cut back the engine power.

  • Amazing it cost 3 Percent of Bhutans budget to pay for the 2 A319s

  • @Aerolineas747 Maybe they made a good drylease deal with Airbus. It must have been a challenge (on aircraft payload/performance) for them as well. Anyway when you want to have nature tourists you must get them there first. It's still an amazing approach.

  • amazing approach :O

  • That was simply amazing. Great job. Thanks! Would love to live in that house!

  • 0:50 Closest to a house I've ever seen

  • Good place for spoting! ;)

  • I'd love to live there ;-)

  • amazing approach, i would like to perfom it !!!

  • Se errar o pouso aí toma no butão

  • My God! Only daredevil pilots can do this!

  • similar like landing in switzerland

  • @clouds102 Its austria... not switzerland.

  • Ladies and gentlemen on the right side of the plane you can see you smoke from the last bad approach into Paro...hahaha

  • Die Landung auf Paro Piste 15 ist die schwerigste in der Welt. Es können nur 12 Piloten der Druk Air. Nach der letzten S-Kurve hat man nur 3 sec. Zeit, um Flugzeug für die Landung auf der Piste 15 auszurichten. Nur VFR.. Diesen Platz fliegen nur 2 Maschinen A319 mit Tribwerken von A321 an.

  • Sie haben Flug Revue gelesen xD

  • Great video. Are You the pilot??

  • Great take pic and sound!

  • The pple in the house on 0:51 gotta like planes^^

  • I wish that i live in that house....

  • He he he^^

  • Imagine a triple seven flying this approach !! I'd pay a million bucks to c that :)

  • i can do it but in fs9 if i do you are gonna pay me right?

  • Nice try my friend :)

  • jajajaja ok ok i try ....come on man that's impossible....but it will be nice really nice or see an antonov 225 landing in this runway ehhh¡¡¡¡ it's more amazing...:)

  • Great vid and a very nice landing!

  • Wow.......

  • 0:49 + = that is rediculously close to that house!

  • @xoio That must be the best place for airplane spotters :D

  • @xoio I'd like to live in that house :D
