Nice video. This is a relatively new airport, entered in operation in 2013. Before the landing was way more challenging close to dangerous in a shorter runway just in the middle of the city. I'm glad now we have a modern airport in Quito.
The Landscape in Quito’s approach is amazing 🤩 we loved! Seems nice and steady approach without any turbulence of any kind! Just loved the mountains!! 🏔️
My city, how beautiful it is from the sky. A skilled pilot, up to 6000 m altitude to cross over the Andes and then to 2800 m to Quito. Sometimes, there is some turbulence,and less air.😂
Travelled to Quito few years ago. It took two (2) attempts to land at the airport. The majestic views of the Andes with the flight gliding precariously with the hope of a smooth landing..was awestruck with the terrain below. Ecuador including Quito is a must visit destination😊
Just landed there (as a passenger, of course) about an hour ago. Pile o' fun -- pilots got a round of applause when we eventually touched down. The city is incredible.
I was there several years ago, 10+. I thought the airport was in the middle of the city. Guess they rebuilt/moved it? Absolutely beautiful scenery on the approach.
Now you know how pilots feel after long flights. Too bad we can’t fast forward and land sooner! Thank you for taking the time to watch this landing in realtime. 😊
The number on the runway indicates the direction of the runway. In the case on Quito, 36 means 360°. A runway numbered 27 would mean 27°. 09 would be 090° etc… 😊

Thank you for watching!
Sometimes, Cotopaxi can look like Mount Fuji when seen from the right angle!
Did you also Land at the old airport?❤
Unfortunately I haven’t.
@@FromTheCaptainsSeat No problem ive landed there multiple times when i was a little kid and we even had to divert to Guayaquil sometimes
*as a passenger
i live in equador
The old airport was in the city, surrounded by houses and a bowl. Seemingly much more dangerous.
I thought we were never going to land...
Now you know how pilots feel after long flights. Too bad we can’t fast forward and land sooner! Thank you for taking the time to watch this landing in realtime. 😊
Exelente video, la música pésima, eso quedaría mejor para un submarino o algo así. Mi país es hermoso y alegre no lúgubre y triste...😢
🤣
UIO is a piece of cake compared to Cuenca (CUE)
Runway 36? There's only one runway.
The number on the runway indicates the direction of the runway. In the case on Quito, 36 means 360°.
A runway numbered 27 would mean 27°. 09 would be 090° etc…
😊
Sensational!
hermoso video pero lamentablemente lo dañò ese fondo musical de ultratumba💀⚰🕸🕷
