Rather like they did in Tegucigalpa......

 

Aha!

The History Channel programme Most Extreme Airports ranks it as the second most extreme airport in the world.[3] The approach to the airport is considered to be one of the most difficult in the world to all aircraft, especially in inclement weather conditions

Because of the terrain in Tegucigalpa, aircraft cannot easily be accommodated on a traditional straight-in approach for Runway 02, the most frequently used runway because of wind direction. Instead, an RNAV (GPS) approach is used, resembling a circle-to-land approach. Aircraft are routed through shallower terrain in a circular fashion, then follow along the Anillo Periferico road to a cloverleaf interchange, at which point aircraft take a sharp left turn to line up with runway 02.[28] Until the partial demolition of the hillside, aircraft experienced limited ground clearance just before the threshold, hence had to approach slightly higher than optimal, increasing the challenge of the landing already made challenging by the short 1,830 metres (6,000 ft) runway. To maximize the amount of runway available, many aircraft land on the 350 metres (1,150 ft) displaced threshold, just before the actual 02 threshold.[29]

After looking for 9 years I have finally found a Spartan Executive to buy. A lot of money, am I crazy? (NOTE: This picture is NOT the one available just an example).

 

I know nothing about the subject but was wondering how the Wasp Junior, which went out of production 70+ years ago, is kept air worthy.

 

There are literally thousands of them still in the air. Parts are still available and there is a company in Tulsa that specializes in overhauling them.

 

Great looking airplane, like a four seat T-6 Texan.

FedEx 767 Cargo flight makes emergency landing after a bird strike

The engines always have fire inside them. It's interesting to see the fire outside some times. It's really interesting to see the fire in the wing.
