C-5 in Lukla (VNLK)! I landed her there and in the image, she is exactly, where she came to a halt!
I guess, that qualifies! Not that I landed there, but that I even tried!

Is Lukla the same airport that does not have a missed approach? because the first missed approach fix is an appointment with God?
OMG!
Outstanding craziness certainly that is!
I like it!!

Lukla...
You can barely get an ATR down there, but a C-5...wtf?

Think about it, a C-5 with little load (if you have no load she has her problems with over-climbing at full flaps, but lets say 10 to 15 tons, just to make her not too light and 50% fuel for the good measure) she has a landing speed of 105-110 knots, that's less than an ATR. So all depends on getting the lining up right and come in just 50-100 feet higher than the threshold, get those reversers going in the right split second (they switch on the C-5 only if throttle is zero) and stand on the brakes like there is no tomorrow

Was flying a TU154 with a bunch of DHC6s with Yesrev and so on, I got the tu154 in there no problem.
