Man it was well... probably scared the passengers so much they'll never fly again

It's got to be MHTG - Toncontín International Airport
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toncont%C3 ... al_Airport

2025m runway + 3000ft elevation + terrain = tricky approach

should be a good comparison to queenstown actually
