I had to land in San Pedro Sula. He said it was too dangerous to land in Tegucigalpa

Yeah, I've flown into San Pedro on every trip. It's a cakewalk over the bananas, sugar cane and palm oil trees. Even in heavy rain there isn't much bouncing or anything. Of course, its 4 hours to Tegucigalpa from San Pedro by car. In all my trips, I think Anchorage in February and Vegas on a 110 day are among the worst. Oh and this one time into Incheon Korea while a cyclone was rolling through was pretty scary...even in a 747.

I used to fly frequently out of K.C. Municipal before KCI was built. Was always white knuckled until we cleared the sky-scrapers.

That landing in Korea sounds like a white knuckle thing. Glad you survived. I haven’t had many bad landings, but the worst I think are the little puddle jumpers that look like the operate on rubber band power. I’ve had to take a few from New Orleans LA to Lafayette LA. The landings aren’t too bad, but the turbulence and cramped quarters are killer.
