flew into TGU once in the 727, they faxed us the charts to our hotel the night before ( non sched fun ) , we came over that ridge , looked deep into that bowl and beheld a tiny runway, made it in, after a lot of prayer, laced with profanity, ignoring sink rate, sink rate, and the hill that seemed to be close enough to touch on our banking, descending finals, called the chiefy afterwards and said it probably would not be a good idea to send anymore crews down here, just saying, he took our advice. Domestically, Aspen in my wee jet, and the Canarsie approach to 13L over my old sod at my beloved JFK , Cheers .
