Approaches
Hey guys,

Do you know some fun and special approaches.
Like Innsbruck where you must fly between mountains, or using special approach charts.

LPMA if you're good at VOR approaches! EKVG if you want a real challenge of bringing her down smoothly: the runway slope is immense!

Kai Tak VHHX (This airport has the fancy nickname: Kai Tak Heart Attack)
Gibraltar (LXGB) - The motorway crosses the airstrip. That is pretty darn crazy.
Madeira (LPMA) - It's windy like f....
Paro Airport (VQPR) - Read about this crazy airport here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paro_Airport - An airport down in a hole :)

There are more, but this will get you started :)
(Thank you "ProjectFly" for the ideas to theese airports).

If you don't have Lukla scenery you can download it here.

I just installed this in XP11 and it works great. There are no instrument approaches to Lukla, just a visual approach but very very challenging as you need to fly something like a DHC-6 twin otter or a DO-228. The runway is very short.
