Cool Most Extreme Airports - New TV Special

I just saw a spot on the History Channel for "Most Extreme Airports". It will be on July 20th Tuesday at 8EST.

Just from the spot I could see video of TNCM, Tegucigalpa and Kai Tak. But I also have a bad feeling about this show. It will mostly be about what makes these airports unsafe for travel.

Here is the show info:

Many airports constructed just 50 years ago may not be sufficient to handle the demands of 21st century aircraft. This special unpacks the particular problems of the world's most extreme airports and examines the engineering behind them, from centuries-old territorial battles that have led to unsafe layouts, to geographical challenges like wind currents and natural obstacles that make these places unfit for travel.
