Druk Air to Bangkok taking off from Paro (PiP)


Bhutan's only international airport is challenging, only specially licenced pilots with a long special training are allowed to start and land there. Flights are with manual approach under visual meteorological conditions during daylight hours only. The airlines flying to and from Paro are Druk Air (Royal Bhutan Airlines) and the private Bhutan Air.
In starting and landing the pilots have to manage sharp curves and weave their way between the mountains. We flew out from Paro and at times the wings nearly touched the mountainside;-)
Two links with the approach filmed from the cockpit show what pilots have to deal with:
Approach from the north www.youtube.com/watch?v=N0KIlFqjams
Approach from the south www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-b5uJ2vtdA
Bhutans einziger internationaler Flughafen ist anspruchsvoll, nur wenige speziell lizensierte Piloten mit langjähriger Sonderausbildung dürfen dort starten und landen. Flüge können nur tagsüber manuell im Sichtflug stattfinden.
Paro wird von Druk AIr (Royal Bhutan Airlines) und der privaten Bhutan Air angeflogen.
Bei Start und Landung müssen die Piloten scharfe Kurven fliegen und sich zwischen den Bergen durchschlängeln. WIr starteten von Paro und manchmal sah es aus, als ob wir mit den Flügeln die Bergflanken mitnehmen würden..
