If you are looking for just that sort of problem in FS2004 or FS 2003
then try Bhojpur in Nepal (VNBJ).

It can be done but not by trying to take off from the default position
the simulator puts you in! I find it difficult to believe there is
really an airfield like this anywhere in the world. Landing is tricky: I
leave you to work out the technique and the best aircraft.

I tried Constanza and that is almost as fiendish. I just got out in the
Caravan using emergency power, one notch of flaps and climbing very
steeply. I had to reverse direction to find the lowest bit of canyon
wall. Constanza does have runway however. I just got back in again. I
confess I used slew to find the airport(?) again!
