Lots of recent previous interesting landing tyre tracks here????

Maybe something to do with the way the undercarriage flexes outwards on landing. Or landing in cross winds?

I would suspect crosswinds jon. Bit too close to being on the grass a few times.

When did the tarmac get laid - it used to be hardcore. Sign of the times.

I think around 2000/1

I feel rather privileged to have experienced it when it was still an extremely rough earth strip.
Gordon Stainforth - 16/Feb/18
I would suspect anyone landing there at anytime that doesn't feel "rather privileged" should probably not have gone. A truly magical place to visit and explore.

Right that is it I am never flying to Lukla. I will walk
