siftbotsays...Insane Landing in Tegucigalpa Honduras has been added as a related post - related requested by Mordhaus.
SFOGuysays...Lot of reasons to hate that approach plate---unstabilized and requires a lot of pilot skill...and then, if the pilot isn't skilled, stuff goes wrong.
Hong Kong's old Kai Tak---same thing.
The temptation is always to NOT stuff it into the ground on approach which overshoots touchdown---and then you're running down off the end of the runway...egads.
KrazyKat42says...Yeah I've played a few flight sims and landing on short runways below hills is very hard.
