  • A forward Indian base...
  • sorry dear your information is incorrect. Altitude of Thois Airport is 10057 ft and Leh Airport is 10683 ft so Leh is the highest airport. regards to all.
  • In winter the teperature is so low that river in that place is frozen!good news for those who desired take photo standing over a river!!!!!
  • In Ladakh the highest air strip is at Fukche in the Changthang, about 60 kms from Demchog on the border with China. The height is 14,112 ft asl. But, it is still not the highest air port. There are several in Tibet's Changthang that are over 15,000 ft asl and one at close to 17,000 ft asl.
  • The highest runway inthe world is DBO (daulat beg olde), which lies in the himalayan mountains in India.
