Hahaha very nice registration and this shot is cool.

Yay

A visitor from United Arab Emirates posted Sat July 4, 2009:
Very nice

A visitor from - posted Mon May 11, 2009:
Amazing photo, and for everyone wondering why SEX is painted on the nose gear, it is because the last 2 or 3 letters of the registration are painted there as the aircraft identification, and in this case the registration is F-GSEX, and so either EX or SEX would be on there, and i guess with the lips livery they would use SEX

A visitor from United States posted Fri January 23, 2009:
Did anyone notice the letters "SEX" on the front landing gear?

A visitor from - posted Mon November 3, 2008:
Amazing Plane with an Amazing People and beach

A visitor from - posted Thu October 9, 2008:
Warning! Low flying & departing aircraft blast can cause physical injury!

Evidently most don't care much...I'd probably visit this island for this probable injury!

A visitor from - posted Thu July 31, 2008:
It is wonderful.

A visitor from United States posted Wed July 30, 2008:
Ive always loved to land at juli, i then always go to the beach and snap some photos, one of the best photo spots for aircraft in the world

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Tue July 15, 2008:
Nice on-board LIPS :)

A visitor from Qatar posted Sun June 1, 2008:

This photo caused me to stop by the picnic tables at the heineken bar on vacation 2 years ago. Going back in 3/08. It was awesome. TK

A visitor from United States posted Sat March 10, 2007:

A visitor from Ukraine posted Tue August 29, 2006:

A visitor from United States posted Wed August 23, 2006:
Uh... why does the nosegear door has SEX painted on there?

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Thu July 27, 2006:
Fantastic

A visitor from United States posted Mon June 26, 2006:
Wow this picture really reminds one how big the 747 is compared to people. Nice shot.
Cheers

A visitor from United States posted Wed June 14, 2006:
Were these tourist's being tossed on the beach by the engines screaming or the jet blast! Looks like unusual and unexpected fun! Like the "pushing tin" scene. Very very cool.

A visitor from Canada posted Sun June 11, 2006:
SXM 4evers

A visitor from Canada posted Sun June 11, 2006:

A visitor from Australia posted Wed June 7, 2006:

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Tue May 30, 2006:
Its gives agood perspective of the plane on its final approach

A visitor from United States posted Fri May 26, 2006:
The ultimate spot for viewing landing aircraft.

A visitor from Netherlands posted Sat May 13, 2006:
Very nice! I love this shot!

A visitor from India posted Tue May 2, 2006:
Looks much bigger than A380.

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Sun February 12, 2006:
Would love to be there some day! It just shows the sheer size of a B747 doesn't it...

A visitor from United States posted Tue January 31, 2006:
Very amazing that so so so many people endanger their lives daily in such a manner !!!!!

A visitor from Sweden posted Tue January 31, 2006:

A visitor from United States posted Tue January 17, 2006:
Don't you think some one has died at that beach...plus i'd hate to be there because it'd be loud

A visitor from United States posted Thu January 12, 2006:
This is very cool, i like it, i like a lot

A visitor from United States posted Thu November 10, 2005:
A very interesting registration!

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Wed November 9, 2005:
It's not everyday that you can get so close to a 747 that's about to land

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Wed October 26, 2005:
You dont want to be on the beach as one of theys big birds takes off, you go flying down the beach, its a must b4 you die! i have photographed photos here before and i got some fantastic pictures, but none of them are as good as this one! The noise is overwelming on that beach too, dont think your goin there to relax! fantastic pic 5 star work! ood job

A visitor from United States posted Mon October 17, 2005:
Why do 747's keep making low passes

A visitor from United States posted Fri October 14, 2005:
Wow...amazing... can't believe I'm the first guy to see the word "SEX" on the front gear flaps.... :) Probably some jackass tech

A visitor from United States posted Thu September 29, 2005:
Breathtaking and mystyfying at the same time!

A visitor from Canada posted Fri September 23, 2005:
Speachless....Awesome Photo

A visitor from Portugal posted Fri September 2, 2005:
One of my all time favorite photos. But actually what appeals me on this photo isn't the Echo X-ray, but to see all the action on the beach. A photo is a frozen moment but in this one, there is lots of activity on the sand.
A really super photo.

Sex on the beach

A visitor from Australia posted Tue August 23, 2005:
Wish I was at the bar with a Heineken!

A visitor from United States posted Tue August 23, 2005:
Great view, great landscape capture, top-notch tail number and the lovely Sunset Beach bar in the backround!!!

A visitor from United States posted Tue August 23, 2005:
This candid does a masterful job of capturing the intimate feel of the beach scene with the shockingly intrusive grandeur of the giant airship!

A visitor from United States posted Tue August 23, 2005:
Wish I was there!

A visitor from Netherlands posted Tue August 23, 2005:
Just a 743 landing at TNCM, do I need to say more?

A visitor from United States posted Mon August 22, 2005:
Cool pic

A visitor from Mexico posted Mon August 22, 2005:
You can see the entire scenario and you can realize the size of the 747 and the proximity to the people

A visitor from United States posted Sat August 20, 2005:
The sense of being suspended in the air next to this huge plane, and the perception of "can this be real"?

A visitor from United States posted Sat August 20, 2005:
The mire size of the ship compared to the people you are not able to see this in large city. The peoples observing the plane what are they thinking. The beach not runway. It's just out of the ordinary. The colors the scale of the background. All aspects are there and new to me.
