Here is a good write up of the world’s most dangerous airports to fly in and out of. The criteria is based on length of runways, amount of wind and lack of visibility. Some of these, especially Courchevel Airport in France, I couldn’t imagine landing or taking off. Gots to have nerves of steel.
On a related note, Yahoo! has a video on the worlds worst airports. Here Martin Hickman, a consumer affairs reporter for London’s Independent, explains why these airports are just plain unsafe and precarious. At some of these you may risk being shot down before you even land.
