I agree about Kai Tak, and yes, it was considered very dangerous. OTOH, it was a very effective way to wake up pax after a long flight from the U.S.

I recently flew into Belize City - our plane sat down, threw on reverse thrusters and the pilot stood on the brakes, then turned around and taxied back to let us off at the terminal.

BZE has no taxiway just one short runway strip.
