Flight Into Bhutan from the Cockpit!

This is a video of my Druk Air flight to Paro, Bhutan on Oct.19th 2009. The pilot agreed to take our Flip Camera into the cockpit and film the landing for us!! Very cool.

Not sure why the plane was calling him a retard, it looked like a good landing to me.

As a jet flight instructor I must congratulate both pilots and cameraman. It's the most useful aircraft approach and landing video for flight instructions that I've ever watched.

Great footage, 1 out of 3 flights cannot land because of the fog, clouds or rain, you were there on a bright and sunny day. I just loved going to Bhutan 3 times a year. One of my most enjoyable flights in the world, after passing the mount Everest, you dive in that hole, swinging between the slopes..the pilots switch off all the alarm signals and buzzers, the small Drukair plane is equipped with extra heavy super carrier engines....take care
