Wow

I like the way the Airbus looks so close to the beach. Makes me feel like the plane will hit these people, eventually.

I have to go to the Netherlands Antilles, for two reasons, and one are these incredible approaches into the airport, Its a great picture in that you can literally almost touch it

I hope the couple on the left have the plane in the picture they had taken...

Very pretty to see!

Look at all those happy people...Is it possible that the happiness has anything to do with this fine aircraft?

Its amazing how close the flights acctually come to the beach. i wonder if there will be any crashes there. i wish i could go there.

I have to go in Netherlands Antilles

Wish I had taken this "shot"!

Good

Found this great site by accident. While looking through some of the photos, I came across this one where I recognise one of the guys in the Shot! What were the chances of that happening? a million to one? That's why I've awarded 5 stars.

I've been to St. Maarten several times, it's an amazing island and the approach to the runway is just as amazing. For a first time visitor it could be heart stopping moment. I just love this picture.

Hi my name is santiago jashuk i want to became a aitline pilot fly all diffrent aircrafts ill love the highness and chalengers i cant wait to fly for the first time ill remmber it for the rest of my life thats why i rate this piture 5 out of 5

Awesome shot!!!!

What the hell is that noise..? ohh sorry boss... ;)

The passengers should have considered they were landing on the beach but not on the runway

Nice shot. Its these kinds of pictures that always remind me of the Netherlands Supreme Court's jetblast judgement of a few years ago on airport liability for jetblast injuries sustained at Juliana. Its a warning to all spotters; don't stand to close to those gates when a plane like that A340 is about to take off.

Amazing shot...one day I will go there to check it out...with my ear plugs!!!

Spectacular !

Stunning. One day I'll go to that beach, just to see them depart and land! :)

This is one place where one of the tourist attractions is the tourists themselves arriving and departing!

One word for all the folks in this photo....DUCK!

Thanks NACO

I've already been to a beach like that in St. Martin and it was halarious because my cousin lost her brand new flip-flops by a 747 :))!!!

Cool landing picture!

I go to St. Maarten in November. Can´t wait to sit in an AF-A340 flying over this beach :-)
