Remark Photographer
My first attempt to cover all the airport in one shot. This is one of Venezuela's most dangerous airport. Slope is more than 3 degrees and is surrounded by the Andes mountains. An ATR is entering the active runway. [Canon EOS 350D]

This photo captures the compact layout of Merida and provides an idea of the general topography. It appears much the way I remember it from the 1990s.

This is a scary airport to land and take off from. The approach through the mountains in a DC-9 was fun, the departure in a B727 was even more scary!
