Airports of the World  |  Extreme Airports
There are a some very dramatic airports scattered across the globe. A few are close to jagged peaks or crowded beaches. Others have incredibly short runways built on icefields, mountainsides or beaches. Or they have difficult approaches that test pilots and aircraft to the maximum. Yet more are subject to extreme temperatures or are so busy there’s barely a moment to take a breath between landings and departures.
