Here's a pretty cool clip of a PC12 taxiing out from its underground bunker, then actually taxiing on a steep uphill taxiway to a tiny grass field. Never seen anything quite like it before. Field is in Bolzano, which is the gateway into the Dolomites in Italy.

Adam, great find, that taxiway may have been more dangerous than the runway.

That baby come yet?

Do as I say, don't do as I do? :lol:

It’s like that slimy crooner guy in Casino when DeNiro asks him (on his shitty in-house casino show) how he came to have 8 children and he answers “It was all my pleasure”… ;) :D

Nice to know that when I get to upgrade to a PC-12 I won't have to spend anything else on the runway or taxiway! What length is he using do you think?

watch out for the turbine L-19 at Locher…(Italians built it for their airforce…) small RR 250 in there…..

Locher is pretty much a Jet A1 airfield, due to the preferences of the owner…you have to drive to the next Shell station to get some gasoline for a Pipercub, let's say.. ;) (Mogas naturally... ;) )

Awesome! I bet it it wasn't so governmentally impossible to operate over there, he'd have a real runway and a 707 or something!! Very cool as presented!
