A pilot has revealed the jaw-dropping footage of a Boeing 737 landing at what could be the world’s most difficult airport.
Pilot PascalKlr on YouTube showed the footage of him and a co-pilot landing at Funchal, Madeira, in Portugal. This is one of the trickiest to land at in an airliner like the Boeing 737.
The runway is located right next to the sea. It requires a sharp approach to get the aircraft onto the ground.
Watching the footage, you get a great sense of the skill behind the controls of the jet. We also see just how tricky the landing is.
