Aspen

Aspen, FSX

Aspen is a ski resort in Colorado, United States. The local airport, Aspen-Pitkin County Airport (KASE) Map Photo, is located in a mountainous terrain which makes takeoffs and landings challenging.

The airport elevation is 7800 ft. The single runway 15-33 is 7000x100 ft and must only be served by aircrafts with a wing span smaller than 96 ft and only at daytime. Rwy 15 is the preferred runway for landings and rwy 33 for takeoffs, especially because rwy 15 is uphill by 2% in real-world.

There is three instrument approaches:

Try also a missed approach where you intercept a localizer on back course. Actucally this is the only purpose of this localizer.
