KLM, a Boeing 747 and SXM airport. All the ingredients!

A visitor from - posted Sat February 28, 2009:
Great angle for this shot. Most photos at SXM are on the beach perpendicular to the plane's flight path. Great idea to get out in the water for a different perspective.

So harmless! amazing how close they go

A visitor from Canada posted Sun January 18, 2009:

This photo makes a refreshing change, so many shots are just side on views, this ads a new perspective to the approach.

A visitor from United States posted Mon April 7, 2008:
About 10 meters lower and those people could have been able to touch the underbelly of the aircraft!

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Sun March 30, 2008:
The sheer scale of this wonderful aircraft and how undisturbed the guys on the beach are

Yup, a new angle in SXM makes the difference.. great shot, indeed

A visitor from - posted Fri November 23, 2007:
Pretty scary! This B-747 flew so low that anyone could touch the landing gear. However, the picture is perfect and taken at the right time.

It's soooooo cool to see this from the water! I hope there will be more like this in the future. I love seeing the shots from SXM, but they are always on the beach. More from the water!!

Agree with previous poster from USA. Eventually someone has come up with a new angle to photo from at SXM. A very refreshing change, and a great shot too. Well done.
