I flew into Dutch in Spring 1994 during bad weather. I was going to work on a dragger boat out of Seattle, it was a brutal landing, I kissed the ground when I got out!

Dutch harbour looks absolutely beautiful. So pristine. Would love to go there one day.

I was just in Dutch Harbor last week for work, we were stuck for 3 days because of the wind on the island. I'm not a pilot, but I can imagine how hard it is to land at an airport like this.

That’s so dope I’ve been to Alaska twice the first time to work in Dutch Harbor! I remember this landing like it was yesterday! At the end of the runway is ocean. You also have to climb before you descend into the airstrip!

Cool place. I flew a load of dynamite into that airport in 1990, and the second aircraft flew the blasting caps. I was FO on my aircraft, and remember that I learned an important lesson that day: While it might be more dangerous to fly the blasting caps, it's sure a LOT less weight to load/unload.

Back when the runway was only 3800 ft long, Alaska airlines flew 737's into that little runway..also Reeve's Aleutian airlines flew Lockheed Electra's into that airport.

I was there a few months ago, have enough private hours in a Cessna to know a right hand turn has to be done flawlessly and praying there’s no feed back (wind) off the mountain. Friend of mine leaving the AP hit an eagle,….there’s 100’s of them here, and was fortunate enough to live and tell the tail.

@@jrstrader cool thanks. I landed from this side on Grant before too. I wasn't in the co-pilot seat so I had to look over his sboulders.

It's a runway, just like any other runway. The only difference is that there are fewer distractions than most runways have. Unless the lack of distractions is the problem. Welcome to Dutch Harbor.

Fewer distractions, what does that mean? I would say mountains all around, often bad weather and high winds with heavy mechanical turbulence, no precision approaches, high mins with long visual segments, and short-ish runway are a lot of distractions.
