Remarks
This approach is a real challenge. Due to the hills on both sides of the runway you must come in along the river and mark a last minute turn to runway heading less that 1NM before landing. Due to the way the hills and valleys are I changed my route and manually flew in, unfortunately I didn’t get slowed down enough for such a short runway and came in hard (-490fpm) and bounced. This meant $19k damage the landing gear.
