From the archive record

This dangerously short runway comprises of one of the most tricky airport landings and take offs in the world! The runway is short and once you reach the end of the runway, there is a void of the valley and no scope for retracting the decision to take off! A helicopter approaches the take-off point on the runway and sits ready for loading and take off. Meanwhile, workers seem to be repairing the air strip and a fire is burning to one side of the runway. A Dornier plane stands parked to one side of the strip.
