That approach took my breath away. So much more for both pilots to do and be aware of. I can't even imagine learning an approach where, even on the best days, you will at the very least be straightening and leveling the plane until a second before you touch down. Kudos to both of them.
I was holding my breath from 1000feet until the end of the vidro. Just the turns would necessitate my wearing a diaper! Wow. They’re both so relaxed about it too. Very impressive!
@@barry4666 You know what....I wasn't going to say anything, but since you pointed it out, yeah, I had the same thoughts too. But she still crushed it ✈️
This was a great display of well trained and competent pilots flying through inhospitable surroundings such as in Bhutan. This is in the ceiling of the world. They manoeuvre through these mountainous surrounds, with the associated weather changes that come with territory. And do it over and over again. I'm in awe of their skills and dedication to their jobs!
@@Sterlingjob Yes but many an incompetent pilot has failed doing their ' job ' with inevitable consequences - failure here is not an option with very little margin for error; so EXCEPTIONAL skills, ike the ones shown here , that go beyond being a 'jobsworth' are needed!
actually this kinda weather is probably preferable. visbility was still okay and when its colder the air is a bit thicker, allowing for slightly slower approach and landing speed. Paro is an insane airport either way, if you cant land blind here in simulator you better of not attempting the real thing.
NOT seeing where the runway is until right before landing made this even MORE scarier to watch. Getting over that first mountain range and then almost diving to land made this even more impressive to watch with their piloting skills. OMG!! Bravo to them!!!
@@michaelrmarak5597 You are MUCH braver than me! I do NOT have the nerves of steel to be a pilot and I salute YOU and all other pilots. My late cousin, Jimmy, was also a pilot and flew for Northwest Airlines for many years and my cousin's husband is still a pilot and flies for Delta Airlines.
Nice landing. Really impressive to watch the pilot flying get it lined up at such low altitude and with late turns required on final. Not a single wasted motion and few corrections.
This is just amazing how much skill, experience and pure intution it must take! By far from any aerial maneuvers including low altitude mach loops, carrier landings this is on par or above given the responsiblity involved in delivering hundreds of passengers safely to a destination. Standing ovations!
This is the best I've seen on the internet thus far. I can watch this over and over and over and over. I totally enjoyed that approach and landing she hand flew it like a boss
I used to dream to become a pilot but I end up being an aircraft mechanic... But still an amazing profession with amazing jobs... The fact is aviation is my passion...❤❤❤👊👊👊👍👍👍
I’ve been a passenger several times on takeoff and landing at Paros and never had anything but perfection on landing and takeoff. Testament to the excellence of the flight crew.
This airport requires special pilot certificación to land here, is a true challenge to those who dare, Her skills and self-confidence make her an amazing pilot! Amazing landing!
@highcountry This aircraft has a side-stick control column. She was flying it with her left hand... out of sight of the camera. Definitely NOT a computer landing.
@highcountry That may be true in Amurrica, but (this may come as a shock) the rest of the world is not always like the good ole U S of A. Landing at this airport is different. Only a handful of pilots are qualified to land a passenger jet there. Sure, computers play a large part in operating the systems of any modern passenger jet, but landing here requires exceptional flying skills. However, I do understand why pilots don''t like the degree to which computers have taken over.... especially if they are flying Boeing 737s, although with them the problems seem to be mainly just after take-off.... if you see what I mean... y'all. You got something against female pilots by any chance?
I'm glad I learned to fly in the nasty weather and winds of Oregon with all our small mountain landing strips. it steels your nerves. you either do it or you give up.
Even though I know they’re going to land safely, I still tense up watching videos of such difficult approaches. 😮 I couldn’t even see the runway until the 200’ warning! Very impressive piloting!
I've watched many different videos of the approach and landing into Paro, but this is by far the most challenging and exciting to watch. The calmness of the crew has to be seen to be believed, outstanding training.
Hard to describe as the video does it all, so calm and an amazing crew what aviators. Absolutely incredible approach and she stuck the landing. Getting that drink to keep her mouth from drying, just amazing.
Wow! I have the greatest respect for these highly talented pilots! Not many at all can fly into this airport! Respect and hats off to these special skilled ones who do this!
Now that is some amazing piloting skills! My hats off to her and the entire crew working in such dangerous and mountainous territory like the Himalaya's! KUDOS!!!
That is one more crazy incredible approach which was carried out exceptionally! There is something about a female pilot that is so empowering but beautiful to watch!!! Great job to both pilots!
Well Trained, and has made this landing before,(I would guess). And absolutely doesn’t matter which sex is at the controls. If she wasn’t properly trained as well as had the experience, she would’ve been in either seat.
Exception flying skills in this very difficult approach and increment weather. Her coolness and experience is so evident here. Truly awesome! Have watched this multiple times just to adapt to my MSFS flight.
Wooowwwww! That was pure joy. Despite the age of equality, it shouldn't and doesn't matter the Captain was a woman but I cannot lie the sight of that tiny lady almost weighed down by the four fat gold stripes on her shoulder boards, operating the controls in a focused yet effortless and graceful way - and seeing the aircraft swoosh and bank at her behest - added an extra special blend of spice and piquancy to an already incredible clip!!!😀❤❤❤ My thanks to the people that brought us this marvellous sequence and of course to the Captain and her copilot....
How could you tell about the tricky terrain and the sharp turns the pilot had to make and I think someone else said you need a special liscense to land at this airport. Someone please tell me where this Airport terminal is at State and Country please. Also please tell me how one could tell about the terrain just from watching this video.😀
@@barbaracreel2777 Sound like you've never been out of state. It's in Paro, Bhutan.....as the video title says. Has some rather mountainous terrain if you use your initiative and Google it.
Thank you for showing us such a brave approach from inside the cockpit. To get a view of all the performance factors like the speed and descent profile was enlightening! Paro will always be my favourite!
That is my video of the month ! Having watched Paro-videos with nice weather, this was an adventure just to sit and to watch. Thanks for every minute and thanks for nu music. Just the thing pure. Long time I wondered why they take this dangerous route to land, but recently I had had the chance to fly in an airliner-simulator where the instructor showed me that you can´t make steep finals like small propellered aircrafts I use to fly. Airliners need to reduce speed and height softly an so this approaching route is a must.
Pilots are pilots. Doesn’t matter whether they are men or women. Thankfully we no longer live in the stone ages and it is great to see the number of female pilots is on the increase. That final approach did have a steep banking to the right . Nice 😊
She did a great job! I have seen other aproaches here on clear days and they are still always a challenge. I thought they would only schedule flights on clear weather VFR days only for this airport. The clouds or fog must have come in at the last minutes. Great job Captain!!!
This approach is probably the most challenging in the world with the Captain only allowed to land the aircraft. Fantastic to a woman in the left hand seat doing such a great job 👍
Bravo, truly exceptional flying. At 300 ft. her right wing was much lower to the mountain rising on her right, which is why she had to make that slight left deflection. Nice.
No one ever did doubt the abilities of female pilots. Female drivers in big-ass SUV's on the their cell phones?....that's a whole different topic for debate
Bhutanese pilots are considered to be the best, well trained and experienced pilots in the world who takes off and land in this difficult terrain every day.
Have flown into Paro twice as a passenger on Druk Air and can attest it’s a very interesting experience. Fly in, out and around several mountain peaks before runway comes into view at last possible minute.
Any pilot can do that, the displays in the cockpit help with navigation so she will know where the runway is. If she really can’t see, if it’s possible, she can fly an ils approach.
WOW , Paro Airport is so Interesting and Surrounding is Very beautiful .Its a Fine Experience with Lasting Memories . I stayed nearly about One Week , at a beautiful Hotel ,Just in Front of the Paro Airport , Watching the Landing and Taking Off of the Aircrafts there . Its a Beautiful Memory .
6:22 to 6:30. GPWS going bonkers. Amazing how she holds it at 200 ft still in a bank, continues descending while simultaneously stabilizing, lining up with Center line and from 100 ft, glides down to a touch down. About time too. I was holding my breath from the 500 ft callout. 😂
As a gulfstream pilot, the advice I would like to give to aspiring student pilots or those who want to become pilot is: - stay humble - keep your mind open to suggestions - always willing to learn - never get complacent
Much respect to all the pilots out there...am a nervous passager...and had recently experienced a rough landing, but the pilots did an awesome/ professional job at stabilising and landing the plane in strong winds...never again do I doubt their abilities 🤗
Hi Joe! How do we know that it is the captain flying the plane and not the first officer? I am not pilot, and just curious to know what hints to that, since we don't see who's holding the stick.
@@viavelum it's a captain only airport,normally only experienced captains with a special training are allowed to fly here. So it can't be the fo who is, by looking at his stripe ,a cadet /fresh starter pilot. Also if you look closely you can see her hand on the throttle in the middle of them...
Well done and perfectly performed approach and landing. The Captain/First officer knows what they are doing and remained in control through-out the flight....
@@FlyingDragonPilot Thanks. I'm not a pilot, so I wasn't sure. That was some amazing navigation through terrain, even with the radar. Major props to the captain!
Flew this in the full motion simulator a couple of times. Even there, it will get your attention. The single engine go-around is fun too. Great job, Crew!
Amazing landing and video! I thought pilots land at Paro only when the weather is all clear and winds calm. This Captain has proven that even in cloudy/foggy conditions pilots do attempt to land at Paro, and do it amazingly well. Both the Captain and First Officer were really calm, relaxed and even had time to take a sip of water!! I will look at the video again and make sure I do not blink!!
UNBELIEVABLE AND AMAZING. I admire pilots regardless but these 2 were so cool calm and collected. And the female captain was awesome. Such relaxed chilled and in control attitude. Super Confident display. Big kudos 👏 💐 🥳 🎊
WOW unbelievable most of this is hand flying in rain with flight directors off totally visual approach so so so close to the terrain ... whew !!! that is well well done 🙏🙏
Wow amazing!! As a flightsim enthusiast I have flown this approach to Paro a gazillion times (on a side note, the flightsim scenery seems to be very consistent with what is seen here). But not even once have I had the courage to try without selecting perfectly clear visibility settings, it is almost 100% hand flying. In this video though you can barely see the surroundings during the super tight U turn between two mountains, followed by negotiating that obstructing cliff seconds before touchdown. I was under the impression that the ATC wouldn't even allow to descent into the valley if the visibility was subpar. I guess the local pilots have perfect situational awareness wired into their heads no matter whether they can see or not🙏
Quelle maîtrise dans cette difficile approche et avec une "décontraction" qui force l'admiration de ce génial pilote. Je suis impressionné par son talent. Bravo, c'est magnifique.
Holy shit, I've seen this approach many times but never in those conditions, that girl must be the best of the best to do that without breaking a sweat, so impressive.
It's probably not the most dangerous airport, but certainly a rather complex approach through the narrow terrain corridor. With an aircraft of this size crucial to have gentle control on the stick and calm pilots. Great perspective and really cool to watch. Thank you for uploading!
So calm and collected. Extremely professional pilot. Interesting to watch this approach and landing in cloudy, rainy weather - much different to what we usually see with landings at this airport..
True Legendary Captain! She should go down in the world book of records as the most professional pilot by just looking how risky she handled this Boeing through 70% visibility inside the valley up until the Landing. Most dangerous Airport verses a Female Skillful Captain Bravo 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Gosh, I have tried to land this in MS FS 2020 so many times, in perfect weather conditions. I never even came close to getting a halfway satisfactory landing done. This pilot has exceptional skill. My highest respect for that.
just tried as well a few hours ago and ended up in a terrain escape maneuvre which also failed :D Yesterday I succeded an approach just like the one that went viral
@@h4mmersbald congrats. The thing is, one need's to get the exact moment hooked when to go into the left turn, all the while having the right descent angle and altitude dialed. Problem is you can't really see the ALS - if there is one at all - due to the sharp banking angles from right to left so it's all feel and / or experience.
My highest respect! Landing under such weather conditions (light rain) makes it even more challenging. The approach is visual only. When the plane is finally aligned it is only 600 ft from the threshold. There is no margin for error! Maybe it's good that most passengers aren't aware that at some points the distance to terrain ia not more than 200 ft at a speed of 180 knots...
There is one video of passengers screaming lol. Same rwy 15 approach. This was such a good landing, even tho the flare was a bit floaty, and always noticed they retard the levels bit late in Paro
It is truly wonderful that women in many places now have almost unlimited oppurtunities for careers! In Illinois being a police detective for a woman even in the 1990's was almost unheard of!

There aren’t any other flights, so they don’t have to worry about that!
The visibility was so poor that at the height of 100 m also there was no trace of any runway. Excellent and brave landing.
High terrain, inclement wx, and look at how relax she is while doing the job... just-another-day-a-the-office like stuff. Simply superb
Sterile cockpit below 10k? She did a good job but looked like a bit of talk not about the approach

Nonsense.
Have flown into Paro twice as a passenger on Druk Air and can attest it’s a very interesting experience. Fly in, out and around several mountain peaks before runway comes into view at last possible minute.
I'm a confident flyer but that had me on the edge of my seat. Superb piloting.
One detail: autopilot OFF since 2:30 of the video. Fantastic
That's cool she takes a sip of water while preparing to land, no pressure, she's landed many, many times before
Hats off to both.. it was indeed a scary turn.. i skipped a beat!!
Wow, in between the mountains, in the rain, and no telling what kind of turbulence. Great job!
She made it look so effortless. It’s crazy.
She needs loads of medals of accolades for her skills. Truly an amazing woman who knows exactly how to perform her job.
Any pilot can do that, the displays in the cockpit help with navigation so she will know where the runway is.
If she really can’t see, if it’s possible, she can fly an ils approach.
WOW , Paro Airport is so Interesting and Surrounding is Very beautiful .Its a Fine Experience with Lasting Memories .
I stayed nearly about One Week , at a beautiful Hotel ,Just in Front of the Paro Airport , Watching the Landing and Taking Off of the Aircrafts there . Its a Beautiful Memory .
6:22 to 6:30. GPWS going bonkers. Amazing how she holds it at 200 ft still in a bank, continues descending while simultaneously stabilizing, lining up with Center line and from 100 ft, glides down to a touch down. About time too. I was holding my breath from the 500 ft callout. 😂
Well it's going off of the RA, 200 over terrain then 200 over flat land means she did descend in that bank gradually towards the runway..

Basically it has to be VMC. VMC doesn't always mean all clear, but a min visibility and cloud base level is available to do a visual segment landing.
Wow, now that is what I call outstanding piloting and landing.. I see why this is considered the most dangerous airport to land at...
High altitude airport, short wet runway, autobrakes are set to low and she puts it right on the 1000ft marker. I think I'm in love.
I swear, that window wiper didn’t do a darn thing to help. She’s amazing. Knew what she was doing and carried it out. Amazing pilot!♥️♥️
UNBELIEVABLE AND AMAZING. I admire pilots regardless but these 2 were so cool calm and collected. And the female captain was awesome. Such relaxed chilled and in control attitude. Super Confident display. Big kudos 👏 💐 🥳 🎊
iam just impressed, not by the fact the pilot is female. just the skill required and the chill she has is also impressive. great job maam
So happy to know that Druk Air has its first female pilot!! Well done, Captain!!!
THAT was SO intense. The skill they showed on such a difficult approach, I kept saying WHERE'S the bloody runway. Respects captain.
Wow! For a minute there I thought I was watching Top Gun Maverick. Awesome job! Watched it over and over.
WOW unbelievable most of this is hand flying in rain with flight directors off totally visual approach so so so close to the terrain ... whew !!! that is well well done 🙏🙏
Wow amazing!! As a flightsim enthusiast I have flown this approach to Paro a gazillion times (on a side note, the flightsim scenery seems to be very consistent with what is seen here). But not even once have I had the courage to try without selecting perfectly clear visibility settings, it is almost 100% hand flying. In this video though you can barely see the surroundings during the super tight U turn between two mountains, followed by negotiating that obstructing cliff seconds before touchdown. I was under the impression that the ATC wouldn't even allow to descent into the valley if the visibility was subpar. I guess the local pilots have perfect situational awareness wired into their heads no matter whether they can see or not🙏
I’m in love Captain 👩✈️! Absolutely amazing and superb maneuvering, relax 😎 all the way . Thanks 🙏
Quelle maîtrise dans cette difficile approche et avec une "décontraction" qui force l'admiration de ce génial pilote. Je suis impressionné par son talent.
Bravo, c'est magnifique.
U mean her talent!
Bravo for this women it's realy amazing , this the réal training to bécame réally pilot in this conditions !!! wow !!!!
Holy shit, I've seen this approach many times but never in those conditions, that girl must be the best of the best to do that without breaking a sweat, so impressive.
It's probably not the most dangerous airport, but certainly a rather complex approach through the narrow terrain corridor. With an aircraft of this size crucial to have gentle control on the stick and calm pilots. Great perspective and really cool to watch. Thank you for uploading!
I have heard that Lukla airport in Nepal is the most dangerous airport in the world. And yes, I have landed there, as a passenger.
So calm and collected. Extremely professional pilot. Interesting to watch this approach and landing in cloudy, rainy weather - much different to what we usually see with landings at this airport..
True Legendary Captain! She should go down in the world book of records as the most professional pilot by just looking how risky she handled this Boeing through 70% visibility inside the valley up until the Landing. Most dangerous Airport verses a Female Skillful Captain Bravo 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Wow. That really is nuts! 😮 Hats off to these skilled pilots.
So proud of the lady Pilot 🌹
God bless her 🌹
Just like a gentleman pilot, huh?
Gosh, I have tried to land this in MS FS 2020 so many times, in perfect weather conditions. I never even came close to getting a halfway satisfactory landing done. This pilot has exceptional skill. My highest respect for that.
just tried as well a few hours ago and ended up in a terrain escape maneuvre which also failed :D Yesterday I succeded an approach just like the one that went viral
@@h4mmersbald congrats. The thing is, one need's to get the exact moment hooked when to go into the left turn, all the while having the right descent angle and altitude dialed. Problem is you can't really see the ALS - if there is one at all - due to the sharp banking angles from right to left so it's all feel and / or experience.
My highest respect!
Landing under such weather conditions (light rain) makes it even more challenging. The approach is visual only. When the plane is finally aligned it is only 600 ft from the threshold. There is no margin for error!
Maybe it's good that most passengers aren't aware that at some points the distance to terrain ia not more than 200 ft at a speed of 180 knots...
There is one video of passengers screaming lol. Same rwy 15 approach. This was such a good landing, even tho the flare was a bit floaty, and always noticed they retard the levels bit late in Paro
It is truly wonderful that women in many places now have almost unlimited oppurtunities for careers!
In Illinois being a police detective for a woman even in the 1990's was almost unheard of!
Hats off... she deserves every prayer of great health and long life... A320... no joke.. lives depend on the decisions she makes.
Wow! Perfect approach and landing! Like a Boss!
One of ~50 pilots trained for landings at Bhutan's dangerous approaches. BRAVO ZULU!
