You are correct that it is Honduras. Tegucigalpa to be exact. Its awesome to watch on video but let me tell ya, its amazing as a passenger. I got to land there one time and I was blue from holding my breath through the approach. Wasnt scary. Just flat out breath taking. I talked to the pilots for a bit afterwards and they both said they loved to fly it.

It must have been some sight from inside the plane being so close to the ground.

I would say the pilots love to fly it is because it is a challange to their skills plus it is not everyday you have to make a landing like that,if you know what I mean.

I was sitting on the left side so I got a good view in the turn. Only thing I can say is if you ever get the chance to try, go for it. I got lucky as I was in the military at the time and we had a chartered 737 when we flew there.
