Favorite airports to fly into? SFO…scenic, yet it has a challenging arrival procedure

Most difficult airport to takeoff/land? TGU see video.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=loyKfeV7NFg

Side stick or center yoke? Never flown a side stick. I think you would have better aircraft control with a traditional yoke, however, the side stick looks like a blast and it makes the cockpit a whole lot more spacious!

Commercial aircraft I have flown with the highest thrust to weight ratio? Definitely the Boeing 757! This aircraft has more power than you know what to do with. Even with an engine out the 757 can climb upwards of 2,000 feet per minute!

Now that US has mastered river landings, what does CO have planned to top them? Hopefully a landing on a runway each and every time you fly would be my choice!
