Catalina Airport isn’t for the faint-hearted. Nicknamed “Airport in the Sky” because of its lofty elevation and sheer cliffs, it’s known for downdrafts and turbulence on approach. Its sole runway is raised in the middle, so much so that pilots can’t see where it ends. Heavy rains can cause it to become littered with pieces of asphalt, potholes, and soft spots, all things you don’t want to encounter.
