Most Challenging Visual Approach?
#62
You're absolutely right about OTH. My point is simply, there are a few trolls on this board (probably not even pilots) who consider themselves to be superior pilots simply because they're (allegedly) at mainline. And they deride regional guys as somehow being beneath their standards. (Sure, I've flown with a few guys who probably shouldn't have a driver's license, let alone an ATP, but there are those kinda guys in every outfit.) Anyhow, I'm just pointing out that some of the most difficult airports in the US -- ASE, SUN, OTH when the weather is bad -- are either exclusively or mostly flown into by regional pilots. And yet we are apparently all ex-felons, guys with multiple DUIs, or learning-impaired, according to some of the nonsense on this forum...

Wasn't so much challenging but fun.
Cleared for the visual and landing into KBUF rwy 13 from FL240. Center asked if it was true about the 3 holer that you could start down when the runway went under your nose. He worked it out and cleared us all the way down from altitude.
