The airport is Lukla - Tenzing-Hillary in Nepal.
The aircraft is a AS350B3e Ecureuil helicopter.
I found a picture of one that has the same panel layout.

Other than "tiny airstrip in a mountainous region of Asia" I had absolutely no reason to think "Lukla", yet that's what came to mind. Guess I was right. Time to quit for the day!!

For the uninitiated: Lukla is often seen as the gateway to Sagarmatha/Mount Everest and features an unconventional runway which slopes noticeably down with the slope that it's on, in addition to having a variable slope.
