Hmmm, a couple there aren't as bad as they seem. Landing on a beach scary??? Done a couple of times on Fraser Island in Queensland, no problems at all (except when I had to get out and help push the plane when it got bogged!
) Reagan national airport should be closed, but the high ups who work on the hill like to get out of town as soon as possible!
Lesotho isn't all that bad (it does look scary, I do admit that) but you should see some of the "landing strips in the mountains of Papa New Guinea!
Gibraltar does have a unique hazard, just wach out for the train cross the main runway!
