Actually there are few Twin Otters flying there. They are mostly a Chinese copy. I landed and flew out of there before the airstrip was sealed and it was basically boulders. Exciting but if you want to see some real flying do a search for videos on Youtube of Pilatus PC 6 aircraft flying in Papua New Guinea.

Its Called Lukla Airport. But in honour of the first Everest Climbers, it has been now named "Tenzing-Hillary Airport".

Actually, an engine-out is the last thing you want on this approach. Thinner air will not allow for desirable glides and you need power on approach. If faced with an engine-out, I would abort, turn it around and fly back down the mountain valley to the airport further south. No need to risk others' lives.

BTW, that was a hard landing.
