I think it would be interesting to see what the landing scenery is like in the approach to many Latin American airports.

I will start with this landing in Santiago, Dominican Republic.

At a later time I will add landing sceneries of other places in Latin America.

There are some truly spectacular sceneries out there.

The approach into El Dorado International Airport in Bogota, Colombia is similar to the scenery seen in many European countries.

My favorites are TGU and SJO, but I don't have videos. Also like the takeoff at SJO when it's toward the Caribbean.

When arriving in Santiago, Chile from the east during the winter, you have a great view of the beautiful snow covered Andes. It's quite impressive.

SJO being San Jose, Costa Rica?

Yes, San Jose. Great scenery taking off to the east and turning north. TGU is more for the experience. The runway is at the bottom of a hill and it seems like you're about to land for quite a while as the plane traces the downward slope.

Landing in Panama City, Panama is much more impressive in person than in video. Despite that, Panama City looks spectacular in the video.
