[VNSB] - Syangboche Airport, Nepal

Welcome to Nepal! Welcome to the Himalayas!

Syangboche Airport (IATA: SYH, ICAO: VNSB) is a domestic airport located in Namche Bazaar. The airstrip is the closest airstrip to Mount Everest and Everest Base Camp. However, it is not often used by those going to either as this is generally not viewed as consistent with safe, reasonably paced elevation acclimatization.

Where to fly to?
Awesome flight options are Lukla, Kathmandu, Paro & Jomsom

I love it, quick question - saw some trees interfering with the end of the runway. Is this normal?

This has to be one of the most challenging airports I've tried so far! Nice work and a great challenge.

Very good! I just did my highest altitude display ever in the Extra 330LT here:

Just tried, even more challenging than Lukla and Bugalaga. Shorter final, more gusty winds, very narrow valleys, and the runway is covered with snow, virtually can't even see it

Excellent representation of this airport and the base camp above the strip! Are you considering customizing more of these strips in the Himalayas? This region is stunning! Would love to see more of this region developed. 😊

Well the sign "You are at 3775m" is NOT at the runway but a few meters higher on the trek. I've been there last year. There's only Helicopter Traffic on that airport. I came in and out in with 9N-ALA. And while waiting there for my flight back to Lukla 9N-ADM came in, transporting a lot of wood for construktion. Before takeoff someone had to clear the runway of Yaks...

Ît is very hard to pinpoint signs just referenced on blurry images on the internet.

Indeed, currently there is only helicopter operation going on, however, there was plane activity. The runway is still there for emergencies and possible future operations.

Pour moi, cette scène qui me parait très intéressante et bien faite ne fonctionne pas. Je ne sais si cela est du la dernière mise à jour de MSFS, mais je ne peux pas décoller du terrain , car mes deux avions que j'ai voulu faire voler tombent en vrille, comme s'il n'y avait pas assez de portance !!!

Sorry, I am not able to speak French.

From what I understood from Google Translate, you are having trouble taking off?

The airfield is at 3800m elevation, it is quite natural, that you are having trouble starting and landing there, because the air is thin. In reality this airfield is for STOL aircraft only, preferable with turbo charger.

Try flying the PC6 or C208, other aircrafts will have troubles.

Great work but I have problems taking of from this airport with the Milviz PC-6. I usually crash into the rocks or trees at the end of the runway... lol

From what I can see here, there are no rocks or trees:

Could you please remove the trees and the rock pile?

Would be great. Because without, I really can barely take of... 😀

(maybe it's my "skills" 😉, but still, the trees and rock seems to be not there in reality)

Thank you very much! I am pretty sure I have seen an image with rocks at the runway edge, otherwise I would not have had the idea to put them there :D Anyways, I will try and improve the airfield!

Thanks a lot and have fun flying!

Yes it really is challenging, thats why there are only a few STOL cargo planes going there. Enjoy your flights :)

Thank you very much! I just noticed, that there are a few errors, as I found out, I was looking at older reference images for my work. I will update soon. I have a few more small fields in mind and I would love to build Kathmandu Airport, however, I am lacking references. I can not find enough images to give me a full idea of how the airport should look like..
