Narsarsuaq Airport, Greenland

Landing at this naturally beautiful airport and one of the most remote on the planet, can be either an amazing or horrific experience—unforgettable in any case. For the pilots, however, it is doubtless a bit of a nightmarish experience since the approach for landing there involves flying up a fjord while the threat of severe turbulence and wind shear makes things worse, even on the seemingly calmest days of the year.
