Pilots-Share-Worst-Airports-Landing

THE most difficult airport to fly in and out of is the Tenzing-Hillary airport in Lukla, Nepal. On one end is a cliff; on the other is a mountain wall. On the way, you are flying between mountains, and there are often clouds.

Pilots-Share-Worst-Airports-Landing

Juneau, Alaska is pretty scary. There’s this big honkin’ mountain at the end of the runway. You land going one way and fly out going the other.

Pilots-Share-Worst-Airports-Landing

Not a pilot, but as a passenger, Lukla in Nepal was, as my dad says in the video, “seriously interesting”. The runway has a 12% gradient (which is a lot more than it sounds!) with a sheer drop at the bottom and a rock face at the top. I was sitting next to my dad in the front row of the Twin Otter. Luckily I hadn’t researched this airport’s legendary reputation before the trip.

35 Airports Pilots Would Rather Never Land In If They Could Choose

I flew into Lukla a few years ago. Read up about it beforehand, and saw all the scary videos. Hardly slept the night before. 16 seater planes. The stewardess walked around before take-off with a little bowl with cotton in it, everyone took a piece to put in their ears, the plane was extremely noisy. When we landed everyone applauded. It was all worth it because that was the gateway into heaven, the most beautiful world beyond that one scary flight. On the way out, take off was just as nerve-wracking.

50 Companies That Created Shamelessly Evil Packaging Designs (New Pics)

Someone who worked in a pharmacy once told me that when it comes to medication, the larger packaging is also to reduce theft. Not sure if that is legit a reason from the manufacturing side or just a lucky benefit from the sneaky practice.

Putting lipstick over your cupid's bow. It's obvious and looks bad. You aren't a Bratz doll. Also: over lining lips and putting lipstick in the corners of your mouth, you look like the Joker.

50 Pics Of People From Years Ago That Give Us A Look Into How Things Have Changed (New Pics)

race is the correct term for classifying humans by physical characteristics. Ethnicity is about physical traits and/or cultural traits. There is just one species, but multiple races. However, both "race" and even "species" are human constructs, based on human perceptions and biases. In the larger sense, they only exist because we say they do. So while linguistically I might tend to disagree, philosophically I see where you're coming from and would tend to agree.

Why do people think someone's on drugs just because they aren't wearing makeup? People do that to me and it's very hurtful and infuriating. You can really damage someone's reputation if they're false assumptions. She doesn't look like she's ever been on drugs. Perhaps a bit tired, but who cares. That's how women look without makeup. These are same day makeover pics. Obviously, she got her hair coloured and makeup done. The hair colour alone warms up her skin colour.
