Why So Few Pilots Are Allowed At Bhutan’s Paro Airport

Bhutan’s Paro International Airport is frequently featured on lists over the “world’s most dangerous airports.” Less than two dozen pilots are certified to make the manual by-daylight-only approach between 18,000 ft peaks, through a long, winding valley, and onto a runway that is only 7,431 ft long and visible for only moments before landing.
