Definitely one of the most fun approaches is the visual approach into RWY 19 at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (KDCA) in Washington DC, USA. This can be daunting approach as you must follow the Potomac River all the way down to landing and stay clear of the P-56 Restriction doing so. I opted to follow the river down as opposed to following the 148 radial. Aircraft: B737-800 Delta Repaint Realism: Set to Hard Scenery: Default Scenery Used
Ok, so maybe this isn't the "most dangerous airport or approach" ever, but this is definitely a fun and challenging approach and is daunting enough that it makes my category of "Most Dangerous Approaches." The approach here is the Visual into RWY 1 at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (KDCA) in Washington DC (aka. "Mount Vernon River Visual").

Today, 9/11/09, the announcement signs straddling the main approach road at Washington Reagan Airport (DCA) carried a repeating message all day asking those using the airport to remember those who died on the original day. Unfortunately, the "grammar check" function failed: the sign reads "LEST WE NOT FORGET", not the correct "LEST WE FORGET". YES!! It's supposed To Read: "LEST WE FORGET"
