In the JetBlue Meltdown thread, someone asked about tricky airport approaches and specifically about the approach into Salt Lake City.

I flew home from DFW last week and had to take the cockpit jumpseat to make it to SLC. We made the approach onto runway 34R from the east...it was cake. All of the arrival altitudes keep you way above the Wasatch Range until you're lined up on the localizer for the runway. It was actually damn pretty.

I had to go through Aspen training this week. THAT is a scary approach. Our company videos showed an approach that we're not even authorized to do on a revenue flight...and I was freaked out just watching the video.

Gonna jumpseat there sometime in the next month to see it first hand.
