The new Linzhi airport is at an elevation of 9,670 feet, and due to
the surrounding mountainous terrain, could not be served by
ground-based navaids. Therefore, the Chinese government commissioned
the development of an RNP approach, and the one that was developed
has a winding approach path 95 miles long, with 108 way points. Watch
this video of the first jet approach into the airport just this month:
