Funchal, Madeira (LPMA) | TUI Airways | RW 05 | 737-800

Funchal, Madeira, runway 05, is one  of the most challenging airports in the world, requiring pilot authorization to land there. Strong winds, wind shear and landing on the side of a mountain make this airport famous. I attempt a landing in a 737-800 by PMDG.

    Got lucky on the weather. Didn't want to use RNAV. Love hand flying. Also, this runway has no ILS.  Thanks for taking a look.

    @Pegaso I did hand fly the A320 into Funchal in a 30 knot wind a few days ago.
