I made this video while Drukair was descending to Paro – just a moment before it’s landing. I was scared like shit during the landing. The plane literally started dancing 10 minutes before it landed. I thought it’s gonna crush! However, I saw the Bhutanese doing their regular work and realized that it’s normal. As the terrain is mountainous, the airplane needs to glide through the mountain and approach the runway through mountains.
