In a fast-paced everyday life today, the airport could be the busiest place in the world. Every minute the plane took off and landed at different airports around the world. There are many airports where pilots feel imitate when it gets there. However, not all airports be a fun destination for pilots, following several banda, which is a nightmare for them.

Location: Osaka, Japan
Year established: 1994

Kansai international airport built on an artificial island with a length of 2.5 miles and 1.6miles wide. This area is large enough so that it can be seen from space. Travelers from the airport can go to the main city by car, train or ferry at high speed.

Schreckengast Stewart who is a professor of aviation technology at Purdue Universityand a former aviation consultant Mitre, said that the airport will probably be under waterwithin 50 years or more due to climate change and sea level rise due to global warming.

Madeira Airport is an international airport. The airport was once famous for its shortrunway surrounded by high mountains and sea that make landing difficult even forexperienced pilots. The original runway is only 1,400 meters, 400 meters but was laterextended.

Runway length was extended twice in 2003 to above the ocean. Because it is built using the garbage, the extension was built on a high pole 180 of about 70m.

Year established: 1963

Airport Juancho E. Yrausquin is the only airport on the Caribbean island, Saba, in theNetherlands Antilles. The airport covers all locations in this small island. Despite the fact that there is no great tragedy that has ever happened here. Some experts still thinkthat this is one of the most dangerous airports in the world.

What makes these airports dangerous is that both ends of the runway was eventuallyarrested by the cliff directly into the sea while one side is covered with high hills. Thismakes possible the aircraft to overshoot the runway during landing or takeoff and end upat sea or on cliffs.

Ice runway is one of the three main runway is used for transporting goods to the researchers in Antarctica. There are no paved runways here. All aircraft must be landedalong the ice and snow. Landings should be done with extra caution. One of the challenges that pilots have to face is to direct the plane into the ground so that the plane did not get stuck into the snow. Okay, sounds crazy!

Princess Juliana Airport is the second busiest airport in the Eastern Caribbean. The airport is named after Juliana of the Netherlands, a crown princess who landed here in 1944. The airport has a runway is very short, about 2180 meters which makes it verypopular. Because of this short runway, the aircraft should approach the island by flyingvery low. Various photographs jet flying over 10-20 meters or 30-60 feet above the islandis estimated to fake but genuine.

6. Courchevel Airport
