You mastered this runway with quite big a plane, Dario...!

 

Not an easy nor smooth landing (the sloped and bumpy runway is difficult to master, it even makes a curve to the right in the middle, and there is also the high altitude that requires more speed....), but the good news is everyone arrived safely... :)  @Stillwater Thanks for your comment!

Nicely captured Dario!  I will always wonder why the locals don't improve these, I mean I'm sure they have shovels.

 

I enjoy your sense of humor very much indeed :) @Jack Sawyer ! 

 

But you know what? Those runways are so much fun that I think we should "downgrade" some runways in other regions, making them as bumpy and tricky as these :)

Not an obvious option, the engine is in its limits. I normally fly there with either a Twin Comanche or the Twin Otter. Thanks for the comment!

Brilliant shots mate!  Great piloting too!  I usually cheat and use the Porter at these strips :lol:

 

Thank you very much, @TerribleT! Your cheating makes it safer for the passengers! :)
