Dangerous Approaches..?

I'd like to know what dangerous approaches are included in FS2002 (the definition of "dangerous" being - difficult, no ILS or can't have ILS, "abnormal"?)

I know of the "checkerboard" approach at the old Kai Tak Intl in Hong Kong, and I've gotten bored of this EASY approach..

I'd like to know of any other interesting approaches.. any inclined, bent, short-INTL runways?

(maybe also approaches with fantastic scenery, like thousand-ft dropoffs off the threshold, or mountains just grasping the clouds on either side..)

.. as you can probably tell, i've had quite some time to dream of this.. haha  ;D

Juneau Alaska: one of the more difficult IFR take offs in the U.S.

Skagway, Alaska: beautiful and VFR field.

Innsbruck Austria.

the IFR in Juneau is an offset ILS!
