A visitor from Mauritius posted Sun April 13, 2008: Wow
A visitor from Venezuela posted Fri July 27, 2007: That airport is amazing you can really feel you are on vacations!!!!! plus los roques is the most amazing place i have ever been, venezuela nice country hope ill go back some day
A visitor from Canada posted Fri May 4, 2007: This shot is awesome! I like the angle that you got of it.
A visitor from United States posted Fri December 22, 2006: Now that's wut I call low!
A visitor from Sweden posted Sun September 17, 2006: Get Down!!
A visitor from United States posted Thu August 17, 2006: HIT THE DECK! Fantastic shot, that's absolutely wild!
A visitor from United States posted Sun August 13, 2006: Watch your head!!! Its hard to believe their is a runway there. looks like its going to land on the beach.
A visitor from Venezuela posted Sun July 30, 2006: Landing anywhere in Venezuela is an adventure!
A visitor from Anguilla posted Tue July 25, 2006: Incredible
A visitor from Venezuela posted Thu July 20, 2006: Kids, don't try this at home! Muy buena foto!!
A visitor from Canada posted Sat July 8, 2006: Incredible :)
A visitor from Brazil posted Tue July 4, 2006: Fantastic south america!
A visitor from Qatar posted Sun June 18, 2006: Good pic
A visitor from United States posted Tue June 13, 2006: Muy buena!
A visitor from United Kingdom posted Sat June 10, 2006: Simple Stunning shot, if you are loking for a picture of the airfield just click "more" and on page 1 there are shots of the airfield.
A visitor from Brazil posted Tue June 6, 2006: Details: in St. Maarten you can see a 747 landing, and you see it right above you! in Los Roques you CAN'T see a 747 really next to you and you CAN'T see the aircraft landing right next to you because of secutiry reasons...Anyway, thats a great pic and really great approach! =D
A visitor from United States posted Tue May 30, 2006: Wow. That's low. We gotta get more spotters to Los Roques.
A visitor from United States posted Fri May 26, 2006: Absolutely perfect as it reflects the many small airports in south America. There was no stunt pull by the pilots nor are they trying to show off. It is business as usual. Landing at Los Roques is just one of those moments you have to experience for yourself!! Not the entire world contains airports the size of O'Hare!!!
A visitor from United States posted Mon May 1, 2006: Beautiful aircraft on such a low approach to the runaway over the beach.
A visitor from United States posted Sat April 29, 2006: Am i seeing what im seeing wow are you allowed to that in a populated beach like that that should be restricted
A visitor from United States posted Fri April 28, 2006: I love Los Roques, i've been there many times, and thats how you are suposse to land when you only have 800 metter of runway, i have also seen some citations land there!
A visitor from United States posted Fri April 14, 2006: Is that even 5 feet above the ground.
A visitor from United States posted Thu March 30, 2006: As an upcoming pilot........ A true pilot will always have one or more times where him and his plane try to do the dangerous stunts.......EXCELLENT! HEHA!!!
A visitor from Ireland posted Wed March 29, 2006: As a pilot myself, this shot perfectly encapsulates the act of making the best of an imperfect approach. I'm guessing the pilots, staring rigidly forward to the touchdown point rather than trying to crawl out the side windows, wish they had come in a little higher but are very aware of how short the field is - lesser of two evils. More flap, a shade more power and hands ready on the prop pitch lever. Great shot.
A visitor from United States posted Wed March 22, 2006: Unless there are factors unseen, that pilot should be grounded for pulling a stunt like that.
A visitor from Mexico posted Wed March 22, 2006: Say Good Bye St. Maarteen, Welcome Los Roques. ¡¡Very Nice Low Approach!!
A visitor from United States posted Sat March 4, 2006: That has to be the lowest approach I've ever seen. Thanks for sharing this with us.
A visitor from Venezuela posted Mon February 27, 2006: Good Details and espectacular aproach
A visitor from United States posted Sat February 25, 2006: Outstanding!
A visitor from Portugal posted Fri February 24, 2006: Below radar drug operations? ;)
A visitor from United States posted Sat February 11, 2006: I can describe this in 6 words: Wow, that is one low approach!
A visitor from Uruguay posted Sun February 5, 2006: Great!
A visitor from Sweden posted Sun January 29, 2006: Nice shot
A visitor from United States posted Sat January 28, 2006: Whoa! He's REALLY low! Makes SXM look like childs play!
A visitor from Netherlands posted Sun January 22, 2006: No umbrellas allowed/needed on the beach!
A visitor from Korea, Republic Of posted Fri January 20, 2006: That guy's gonna hit my head..LOL
A visitor from France posted Thu January 19, 2006: I love this one so much because it reminds me the "Matrix" effect. The subject is fixed, but everything around moves (e.g. the boat)... A perfect moment. "Ô temps suspend ton vol !" disait Lamartine (French Poetry) "Ô vol suspend le temps !", I would try... :)
A visitor from United Kingdom posted Tue September 13, 2005: I wonder if theres a sign saying 'beware low aircraft' at that beach. 'Wheres an aircraft? I dont see a...AAARRRGGG'. It must be cordoned off. Great shot too. I wonder if he has 4 reds on the PAPI...if there is one.
A visitor from Germany posted Tue September 13, 2005: Nice Argument!!!
A visitor from United Kingdom posted Fri September 9, 2005: Great shot! Can he get away with flying that low?
A visitor from Ireland posted Thu September 8, 2005: I particularly like the fact that the pilot isn't screaming and bracing for impact!
A visitor from Viet Nam posted Wed September 7, 2005: Low, low, low. Please be more careful. :D
A visitor from Australia posted Mon September 5, 2005: Waaaaaaaah! Awesome! I wonder what the people in the boat were thinking?
A visitor from United States posted Sun September 4, 2005: The quality is super good even the engine props are stopped.
A visitor from United States posted Sun September 4, 2005: To see a view on final app of this runway strip, go to www.lascatolablu.it/original_image.php?n=73
A visitor from United Kingdom posted Sun September 4, 2005: Wow! Wouldnt like to be building a sandcastle just there! Amazing shot.
A visitor from Venezuela posted Sat September 3, 2005: That's a picture, what a great low approaches, Los Roques Rocks!!!
A visitor from Estonia posted Sat September 3, 2005: A good one! I'm wondering whether you could also go to the area which it is passing at the moment :)
A visitor from Norway posted Sat September 3, 2005: Verry good
A visitor from Canada posted Sat September 3, 2005: Wow! Did this plane come in short????? LOL!
A visitor from Germany posted Sat September 3, 2005: Lowrider
A visitor from France posted Sat September 3, 2005: This low approach is so much better than at SXM...nice shot!...but where's the runway?
A visitor from Netherlands posted Sat September 3, 2005: It's the distance to the ground combined with the suggestion of speed that makes this a very special picture. One mistake or misjudgement and the pilot will land in the sea!
A visitor from Lebanon posted Sat September 3, 2005: This photo sure revised the standards of low approaches! I assume the airport has no fences around ? :)
A visitor from Netherlands posted Sat September 3, 2005: Wow! Definitely the new standard for low approach photography.
A visitor from Australia posted Sat September 3, 2005: I have flown thousands of hours in both the 690 and the Aero Commander 500B. This photo brings back many happy memories, but I have never had to do an approach as low as this. Shake hands with the pilot !
A visitor from United States posted Sat September 3, 2005: My favorite kind of approch LOW!
A visitor from Malaysia posted Sat September 3, 2005: Now that's a photo you don't asee everyday!
A visitor from United States posted Sat September 3, 2005: Wow, low to low
A visitor from United States posted Sat September 3, 2005: Can we get some 744s landing at that airport ;)?
A visitor from United States posted Sat September 3, 2005: Damn awesome
A visitor from United States posted Sat September 3, 2005: I agree with the photographer...St. Marteen is no longer the king of low, beach approaches. Beautiful setting with a beautiful(in my opinion)twin...i want to try that approach now lol
A visitor from Netherlands posted Fri September 2, 2005: This is your captain speaking : we now fly at zero altitude !
A visitor from Poland posted Fri September 2, 2005: Fabulous manfique
A visitor from Canada posted Fri September 2, 2005: Simply amazing. I wonder if all other aircraft make similar approaches?
A visitor from United States posted Fri September 2, 2005: Heh...Nice. Now if only someone was sleeping there when it flew over. heheh
A visitor from Germany posted Fri September 2, 2005: This is what I call a low approach!!!!!
A visitor from Poland posted Fri September 2, 2005: Very good
A visitor from Australia posted Fri September 2, 2005: Awesome shot! You caught it at exactly the right moment, with the birds in the water and the boat in the background!
A visitor from Switzerland posted Fri September 2, 2005: Great pilots job! Needs a lot of experience and knowledge about wind conditions in the Caribbean sea!
A visitor from Venezuela posted Fri September 2, 2005: The best low approach I've ever seen.. And is on a beautiful place in my country like Los Roques!!
A visitor from Colombia posted Fri September 2, 2005: Excellent shot. The low approach, the sun light, the sea...everything!!! Los Roques is just beautiful.
A visitor from Costa Rica posted Fri September 2, 2005: That's a great picture....that's very nice...I would like to land over there...but I'm in Costa Rica
A visitor from Portugal posted Fri September 2, 2005: What a fantastic shot!!! In an amazing place that unfortunately, most of the people din't know it
A visitor from El Salvador posted Fri September 2, 2005: Every time you see a landing on TV from Los Roques there's a Commander...and What an approach!!!
A visitor from Brazil posted Thu September 1, 2005: That is a low approach, alright!!!!
A visitor from Venezuela posted Thu September 1, 2005: It´s a great photo!!! Los Roques national park is a beautiful place and the pilots enjoy the landing.
A visitor from United States posted Thu September 1, 2005: Holy crap!
A visitor from Sweden posted Thu September 1, 2005: Just like Lil´jon said: GET LOOOW!
A visitor from Venezuela posted Thu September 1, 2005: Great picture, i love turbocomanders either Los Roques, Los Roques is the most wonderful place in the world
