I saw that on TV recently as the worlds most dangerous airport in Nepal. They always land uphill and take off downhill.

Lukla - If so open house

You didn't respond to PNG (Papua-New Guinea)

Could it be Chimbu?

That appears to be beautiful Baguio-Loakan.

Not too scary to get in and out of unless it is during the monsoon. And the rewards are well worth it.

Nothing doing and snowbound here in Dublin - so how about this - I have checked the sticky and the airstrip associated with the image was posted before but not this view - so ...just to keep things moving

PF has declared Open House so may I offer this one? Probably won't cause too much difficulty. Colours look a bit odd as it's a scan of a print.
