10 Most Dangerous Airports in the World

Toncontin Airport, Honduras

This airport, serving the capital of Honduras, is located in a valley, on top of a mountain, 3294 feet (1004 meters) above sea level. As any mountain airport, it is not an easy place to land nor to take off from. Pilots must make a sharp 45-degree turn amidst mountains, making sure that the bottom of the plane doesn’t scrape the land below. Passengers experience a quick drop in altitude when landing which can cause eardrums to pop. All of these conditions do not make the end nor the start of your flight a very safe one…

The next airport is a very unique one, and is becoming more and more dangerous because of humans…
