Isn't that airport one of the hardest to land on?

Or am I thinking of another one with a hard bank before landing?

Not uncommon when landing here either. The airport is between two ridges of mountains and the winds can cause a lot of problems.

No, just a bunch of pilots, avgeeks, airports, airlines, etc. so when an interesting video comes out, a lot of them "like" it and it shows up on my feed.

I'd imagine some tray tables and seatbacks may not have stayed in the upright position and items may have shifted during the flight.

Looks like the winds are blowing baw's camera around as much as the plane.

Not really. It just has a major hwy intersecting the runway. They literally have crossing guards that stop road/pedestrian traffic for landings/take-offs.
