from a travel blogger is is flying into Bhutan: "Only 24 pilots in the world are certified to land at Paro Airport in Bhutan - one of the most

dangerous airports in the world.

Landing is all done manually & by daylight only. The pilot must steer through 18,000-feet peaks at a 45-degree angle, through a long winding valley, and quickly drop onto a short runway that is only visible moments before landing"
