Cannot imagine, where is runway begins. Approach looks too low. But picture is just beatufull.

A visitor from - posted Mon June 22, 2009:
Extreme Approach, very extreme Approach !!!!!

A visitor from Canada posted Fri March 20, 2009:
This has to be a candidate for lowest jet approach at SXM ever, and definitely lowest heavy approach.

A visitor from Canada posted Sat March 7, 2009:
Very good pictures

"We're gonna have to come in low to land this baby. Real low. It's just something you do when you land..."

A visitor from United States posted Fri April 20, 2007:
I wonder how many of the beach-goers have hearing damage from hanging around too long when the whales are flying past!

A visitor from Malta posted Thu March 8, 2007:
Very very low approach. i wanna check out this place ;)

A visitor from Austria posted Wed March 7, 2007:
Beautiful Maho Beach, nice plane. impressive

A visitor from - posted Fri November 17, 2006:
This photo emphasizes the immense size of the 747 at low, low altitude, low enough to scare the people on the beach.

A visitor from Brazil posted Tue October 31, 2006:
Very beautifull, would like to go to this place.

A visitor from Portugal posted Sat September 23, 2006:
That´s a great foto, i would like to be there also, if we stretch our arm we could feel the plane passing

Das ist scheisse

A visitor from Canada posted Thu April 13, 2006:
It must be really noisy for anyone on that beach. No need for sunblock by seeking the shade from the plane.

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Sun April 9, 2006:
Nice one

Wow. That'd be a fun beach. Very fun.

A visitor from United States posted Tue January 24, 2006:
Obviously, the St Maartin facility is uniquely placed on the terrain. Would like to get a view of this airport/sunway system from a 1000 feet a mile away. Scary place!

A visitor from United States posted Fri January 13, 2006:

A visitor from United States posted Tue November 15, 2005:
Anybody remember the wingtip vortices scenes from the movie "Pushing Tin"? Hope they didn't ruin their day at the beach.

Didn't this already happen? Netherlands Antilles looks familiar ... ahh, yes!

The same place, too -- it looks like it, at least. Beach. Low plane. No nude people, though.

Salutations to the photographer for catching this great shot!
