would love to find this in FS9.

im thinking that might be Lukla, Nepal (VNKL) ?

hard to tell from a photograph...

Looks like Lukla to me

I forget the name, but it looks like the one that's at the base of Mount Everest.  Is that Lukla? (I think it is)

We have an affirmative on Lukla

Some of the pics on airliners.net of Lukla are really nice. Have a search

watch the first step, its a doosy

Im I the only one who just gets a little grass strip in FS, when typing Lukla?

Nope, that's what I got when I tried it out, but I downloaded an FS2002 scenery from AVSIM which seems to work fine.

This is Lukla Airport also a very  hard airport to try and land at in fs9 as you have a huge cliff face at the other end of the runway! ! ! ! ! !
We flew to this destination on one of our multiplayer flights in Cessna 337's, and is a real pain to land at.....

Nemo.....

Yup, I was on that flight...... NO option for a go around.

I got a 747 off there once in FS2002.

That's a horrible,Imagine if you have problem right after b1,Option Take of or Take of,or byyyyyyeeeeeee, or if the brakes doesn't work to good right after landing

So thats what that little grass strip is supposed to look like!
I just about managed to get a fully loaded 747 off there. You've just got to nose down and eventually you get enough speed.
