F-OHQK (cn 8238) This is 'short finals' into St Bart's. You come over the crest of the hill and make your final dive down to runway 10.

One of the most dangerous runways on the planet. I wonder if it's possible to cut off the hill and simplify landings.

I would like to live in the house on the left :)

Great capture of an amazing approach! I think its the shortest runway in the world with commercial service. I got an add-on for Flight Sim and the approach is very fun to fly.

Good photo

Good job capturing how hard this approach is. In Flight Sim 2002, I had trouble making this landing in a Cessna172

Very interesting landing. This picture inspired me to try this runway inside Flight Simulator. Very fun takeoffs and landings. Great photo.

I don;t think I have seen this photo of yours Jid before today. You really have caught the atmosphere of this approach well. Paul

This is really a different approach. necessary to be
very close to the ground when landing on this end of
the runway, max. flaps at the position the aircraft is in now, and probably stand on the brakes at the
other end!!!
