Aircraft Taken at More: Yeti Airlines More: De Havilland Canada DHC-6-300 Twin Otter More: Lukla - Tenzing-Hillary (LUA / VNLK) More: Nepal, October 11, 2005 Remark Photographer 9N-AET (cn 619) A busy day at Lukla Airport. Seen here is a takeoff of a Twin-Otter, with the next one ready to go. A Do-228 had to park on the runway because all parking spots were full. Due to bad weather on the previous days, there were a total of 42 flights on this day! Of interest: only pilots with over 7 years' experience are allowed to land here!

A visitor from United States posted Mon July 3, 2006: Great shot! Where will they think of putting an airport next?
A visitor from United States posted Mon July 3, 2006: Wow. That's a tough looking runway. Good job capturing that, and good job with the beautiful background of mountains.
A visitor from Austria posted Mon July 3, 2006: Were there, had the sight, got the t-shirt. Beautiful, but scary place to land... :-)
A visitor from United States posted Mon July 3, 2006: Truly amazing, it is the gateway to mount everest and should be one of the most difficult airports in the world for the pilots.
A visitor from Estonia posted Mon July 3, 2006: This is one of the most amazing airfields I've ever seen. A quality Lukla addon was released for MSFS2004 and I tried to land there. It's really very complicated, but with lots of experience they probably do it very well.
A visitor from United Kingdom posted Mon July 3, 2006: Extraordinary shot of a unique airport. Makes one realise the skills required by the pilots to get in and out of here.
A visitor from France posted Mon July 3, 2006: A great picture!
A visitor from Germany posted Mon July 3, 2006: Greast Picture, the requirement of 7 years to fly at Yeti seems to be a little overdoing it, but ist definitely is important that one who flys there must knoe how to land hot and high on short fields and of course must have extensive crummy weather experience.
A visitor from United States posted Mon July 3, 2006: Simply stunning... I guess this answers my question of how remote an area can be and still function as an airport.
A visitor from United States posted Mon July 3, 2006: Coool Photo. Funnily enough i was looking a Lukla Photos the other day an hoping more would be added thanks, A sude note thats my moms bday.
A visitor from United States posted Mon July 3, 2006: A stunning photo. The sunlight partially blocked by the scattered clouds makes the fantastic scenery look even more fantastic. Imagine a power failure riht after lift-off.
A visitor from Netherlands posted Mon July 3, 2006: Nice
A visitor from United States posted Sun July 2, 2006: Exciting airport
