Its about 6500' up with a thunderingly great mountain on one side and a rather big drop on the other. As if that isn't enough the runway gradiant is about 18 degress! Anybody fancy going there?
Yeah, i would, especially if it were like it was when I was there last jan...... over yer shoulder fresh powder, clear skies, hmmm heaven (well, one of them!) Just a shame about the 3 hour+ transfer to Geneva a dash-7 would have done nicely!!!!

A dash 7 was used during the 1992 winter olympics. Think it flew to/from Orly.
