4. Ice Runway, Antarctica
Ice Runway located in Antarctica is indeed really extreme airport. It’s basically just long stretch of snow and ice in Antarctica. It’s one of the three airstrip used to send supplies to researches located at Antarctica’s McMurdo Station. Extreme weather conditions with temperature under -50°C don’t make it easier for the pilots to land here. Another problem is that you can’t rely on hard land – pilots have to land extremely well to not break the ice which would make the airport immediatelly sink in the ice cold water.
