I can tell you that its very interested from a pax point of view. I flew Delhi-Paro and Paro-Kolkata in 2008. I'm certain that from a pilot's point of view it is very challenging (understatement)! I remember flying along a valley and looking both ways, left and right, and seeing in to people's houses before a final last moment turn and touch down! Take off is less impressive but Im certain its a challenge for the blokes up front. Innsbruck, Chamonix etc have nothing on Paro! Martin

PS: And to think they have time to film it too!
