Show synopsis: http://www.channel5.com/shows/worlds-most-extreme-airports A shortened/FSX-type summary clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fLphTxDix-c I'm sure the full show is out there somewhere... List was: 1) Lukla, Nepal 2) Tegucigalpa, Toncontin - Honduras 3) St Barths - Carribean 4) Princess Juiliane, St Maarten - Carribean 5) Gibraltar, Spain/UK 6) Kai Tek, Hong Kong (Not sure why seeing it's been closed for years, but anyway....) 7) Courchevel, France 8) Eagle County, Vaile, US 9) Funchal, Madeira 10) - San Diego I'm sure the airline pilots on this forum will have an opinion on the rankings/inclusions/exclusions - Now -- let the arguments begin!
