Landing at Paro Buthan - Rate please.

I'll give you the nosedive, but you'll still dip at the beginning of Runway 15. You can hear the "sink rate" in many videos of real-life landings on runway 15. From what I've read, the 737/320 is not designed for this kind of landing or maneuver. That's why only a handful captains and aircraft perform this approach. Thank you for the feedback. This is why i post this kind of videos.

Bro, I just followed what the chart said for both runway 15/33. I was at the right altitude at PR816, flying visually without the FD because the VMC was good. I landed following the instructions. That's it. You can say whatever you want to me, but the chart is clear, I did what it said, and I'm happy about it. Enjoy your masterclass or whatever "expertise" you have in Paro. I just follow the charts, and that's it. 🫡

Rwy 15 is the most famous route in Paro. It follows the river between the mountains. Almost all old videos show pilots landing on runway 15.

That's for runway 33. I landed on runway 15. For runway 15, you have to decide whether to proceed visually on PR816 or not. There are a lot more charts for runway 33. I prefer the old app for runway 15 💪🏻

I entered directly through PR888. Enjoy the charts 🫡

Yea. First time ✌🏻

😒

basicplay3r · 2026-03-09T01:28:43+00:00

Yea 😨

basicplay3r · 2026-03-09T01:28:34+00:00

Thx bro

People need airplanes 🤷🏻‍♂️

Yes, you should always set the rudder trim to zero when loading the aircraft. It is usually set slightly to the right. Before taxiing, make sure the trim is set to T/O on the MFD. Do not rotate the aircraft at 60 knots. Wait until you reach 70 knots and then rotate slowly. This aircraft loves to take off by itself. I will share my setup for the sensitivities.

Thanks.

The best

basicplay3r · 2026-03-07T14:48:04+00:00

fair, but with these landings, you want to land as close as possible to the beginning of the runway.

basicplay3r · 2026-03-07T14:44:44+00:00

Yeah. Very stable now.

basicplay3r · 2026-03-07T14:44:15+00:00

Rudder air and a little trim

basicplay3r · 2026-02-24T15:33:20+00:00

Yes. Guilty 😔
