Aviation Photo #1126677 Dassault Falcon (Mystere) 20F-5 - Untitled

Wow! That's pretty low!

Must be the lowest I've ever seen...guess he just made it past the fence! GREAT!!!

The lowest of the low!

Great shot, guss we can find this guy in Guiness World Records?

That's gotta be the lowest approach photographed! Unbelievable! Great shot!

Yeah!!!!Maho rocks!!!

WOW!! Unbeleaveble!!! Really low Great shot!!

Great job on capturing this, one of the best that I have seen! Imagine being that sunbather at the time!

How did he get over the fence?!... 5*s

5 Stars! Congratulations! The best pic of the lowest aproach in Maho Beach!
Greetings from Rio Gallegos, Argentina!

Look at the shadow on the sand! Really low.

5 seconds later he would of hit that black car. Lucky that guy underneath isn't 7ft and he stands up he be halfway downt he rwy. Great picture

It just what it is an awesome approach.

Could almost touch it!

OMG!! thats amazing, that person must have een a bit concerned at that point, how did it get over the fence! Great shot, have have been scared when it was coming in though! well done

You're telling me that didn't hit the fence!!! Amazing

Wow ! ! ! it's Amazing !

Wow! If this is a genuine photo that is dangerously low! No question about it - crazy!

WOW Increbible, I wish I was there. This photo is very good cuz of light.

WOW. That is really low.

The shot is amazing, but what amazes me is the guy underneath seems like he could care less!

OMG! Must have been quite scary for the man under the aircraft :D Although I think it was not quite nice for the people in the cars too! Through the next year or two this might be the ''top viewed photo of all time''
A fenomenal job with the photo. I always get impresed with theese SXM approaches

Nice landing!!

Wow....how the heck did he clear the fence??? Great photo!!!

That guy is full throttle just now ! What a timing man, awesome pic !!

Wow!One of the best Maho Beach pictures out there! Well Done!

Awesome shot!!

Wouah ! Certainly, the most beautiful Maho picture I've seen ! The Falcon 20-5 is also beautiful ! Congrats for this really nice shot. See the guy in the shadow ;))

This is way to low! Bad pilot.

Congratulations!

Superb shot of a clown showing off for the public and endangering them too.

Love the sign: DANGER! Those people don't seem to care at all. Great shot Rotate

I seriously wish I could claim to be as cold-blooded as the dude with the best view of the main gear. VERY cool picture.

Just GREAT, SUPER!!! How low can you go, indeed!

Too low! terrain! pull up! pull up! i wonder how that person under it felt!

I could grab the landing gear!
Amazing low approach!
Perfect timing!

Right time, right place, unless you're on the beach!

Imagine if that person below jumps and raising his hands!

Good photo, but it seems like at this rate they are going to clip the fence! I belive that, they did a little bit of adjusting in order to clear that fence.

Why is too low if the plane has plenty of runway ahead.

5 stars.... Did I dream ? The cockpit window seems to be open ? The dog probably don't know that he is the luckiest one on earth !

Space shuttle, cleared to land! Man he is low! I would do the same though! Anyone need a haircut? 5 big stars from me! ;)

Wow this is the lowest approach Ive seen, AMAZING!

5 Stars, for this great shot of SXM!

Someone said they can tell he's too slow... I'd bet he's on that throttle full-on at this moment till he clears that fence... ;-)

I bet the person in the shadow, after being frozen in place by fear and disbelief, ran to change his pants afterwards! I don't see how this clown cleared the fence, unless he was climbing, which is another scary thought!! But that could explain his AOA.

Crazy pilot! Great picture - 5 stars!

Duck.........where? NO!! DUCK!!!! lol i think this is the lowest approach ever at SXM!! holy crap!! they should sell earplugs there as well......the sign in the background gives a good warning 5+ stars!

Another crazy texan trying to scare the fish outta the water *note the flag on the tailfin lol 5 stars

5 stars!!!!
congratulations

It's good pilot, and people on the beach, under shadow, had a courage :)))

It's great!!

Glad the person sitting on the beach did not have an umbrella... lol

So good

Crazy pilot!!!!

Look at that man under the plane`s shadow! He must be thinking: What? Who took the lights off? Oh, it`s one of those planes again..
(Pilot has courage to land on this runway that day..)

Holy Mackeral! Very soon one of these planes will 'Go Below the Belt'. Thanks, Rotate, for sharing an 'Extremely Low' picture here.

I wonder how close he overflew the black car and the perimetral fence...next time he could try to cath it with an arresting hook! ;P

"Fence! Pull up! Pull up!"

Nice and LOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So this is how they check the main gear for malfunctions?... Great shot for you... headache for the sunbather

Really amazing this photo and the approach, but I must say that I think that such as it is beatiful, it is dangerous... people are below very close, and also the hotel!!! I am astonished!! beatiful and awful at the same time... really!! regards from Buenos Aires, Argentina... Tony

The guy under the plane must have got kinda toasty from the jet blast

Out of all the pictures I have seen, I have to say this is one of the coolest. Nicely done. Congratulations on such a cool photo. Keep it up.

I love it!! but someday someone is going to catch it, I wonder...

Lucky moment, captured!

Is the guy in the shadow the maintenance inspector? Great catch. Should be eligible for awards.

Superb picture! Howdy folks, how about getting a new hairdue today? -Capt... we have to make a belly landing... -Great balls oh'fire, wheres our wheels son? -They're back at the fence sir -Hell no. No belly landing, will come around and ditch the sun of a beach heeehaaa

Any picture of an a/c on low approach to SXM gains five stars!! Landing gear must have almost clipped the fence!

Great shot!!!

Great¡¡

Very Good Pic

Looks like you could jump up and touch the gears.

"How Low Can You Go?" Many pilots would probably answer: As low as the ground allow!. Nice pic!

Love the shadows on the two people on the beach! Great shot! SXM is one of the great reasons for going to St. Maarten.

Nice way to get some shade! Great pic!

That's about as low as you can get!

Amazing! Crazy! My God! The "Nose up" angle is too big!
I am sure the pilot got sweat! No more then 10 feets!
Great shot! One in a million!!!

Cool, this guy is crazy

Awesome!

Wow Robin......what a stunner......I'm in awe!

Andrew
Singapore

Viva Maho!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Great pic. I actually got to meet one of the pilots for this plane.

Great Picture!!

Amazing photo. Captured in all it's wonderful appeal.

This photo is excellent. IMHO the PF should have been a bit higher on short finals- why in the world was he so low?! Anyhow, the photo is great not only because of the location, but it captured such a high AOA and I love the timing concerning the shadow over the beachers!

I don't know what the guy thinks, but is very cool.

Unbelieveable!!!!!!!!! Must have came pretty close to the fence too!

Would you prefer this little aircraft, or a 747?
747 all the way. :)

This photo deserves more than 5 stars. What a picture. I wish I could buy the print of it.
Thanks.
HB...

Perfectly framed shot, even with the angle of the flare. Excellent lighting, crystal clear focus, registration in full view, and Location, Location, Location. Where do I click for 6 stars?

Princess Juliana does make some best shots!

Congratulecion nice pic

Amazing

Timing. Everything in this photo screams "Timing!"... the angle of the airplane, the height of the airplane, the shadow, and... ooops, almost forgot, the idiot on the beach sitting smack-dab in the middle of an over-water approach to a short runway! (I would capitalize "idiot", but the instructions for this comment page tell me not to use CAPS!)

Outstanding capture. That is where the fun is!

Is it me or is the Co-Pilot turned around?
Great Photo.

Good

How did it not hit the fence??

This Falcon is way too low! Anyway, it

Excellent picture!

Don't stand up pal! Or your're gonna be blessed!

Simply amazing. it looks really low though

I think the pilot had a little too much fun trying to scare people!

Are these pilots drunk? :)

It wouldn't hurt if it hits you right? ...no maybe it will hurt... a lot. XD

I think the guy on the beach changed his underpants after that!

Very steep approaching.... great shot
i wouldn't like to be under this plane with these pilots

The photograph is super. The scary thing is seeing how far the fence away still is, and seeing how low the airfract is at that moment bound to be very close to clipping that fence. Looks like hes trying to pull up a bit

The guy under the plane doesn't look phased at all.

Wow thats low it seems like that guy under the plane could just stand up and grab onto the landing gear

Lol i bet pilots do that just to scare the life out of people on the beach

Was the FO trying to checkout the girls at the pool in the hotel... if you see closer he's lookin like TOO LOW.. TOO LOW PULL UP!

Ahh! i wouldn't fly this low if were you.

I find it ironic that this cowboy pilot is flying an aircraft based in Texas (state flag on the tail). There is no need to come in this low. A Falcon has one of the shortest landing distance of any jet, so why risk ripping the gear off? Stupid...

Yikes! i wouldn't be this close if i were you

I have heard about pilots needing to land quickly but this takes the biscuit!. No way on this earth would a sensible Pilot bring in his plane so low on approach, when the runway he is landing on is long enough to take a 747! Great picture

Too low! Beach spectators! Woop! Woop!

Surely not going to be able to cross the threshold? Has to be a go-around. Great pic!

Great shot but thats one very dangerous landing.

That guy sitting directly under the jet, has the nerves of steel.

"Hey, five dollars says I can touch the landing gears!"

Wow, that's low.

That's the only perfect picture on the whole world

This for me is the ultimate SXM photo(I have spent a week there).The aircraft I reckon is 12 ft above the sand but not decending..hence the high AOA,he holds this to over the fence(around 5ft+)This is pure speculation the co Pilot is looking right for a visual reference re.altitude.

Best funny picture should have moved

SXM at it's best
Spotter's paradise

What a crazy pilot!

Somedays, a pilot landing there is going to feel a bump right before touchdown.

That is too close for comfort! WOW Great pic!

Superb amazing aircraft.. magnificent to own.. Beautiful sleek aircraft..

Its giving people shade XD

One of the best!!! Maybe the one...

This just to low for me notice the danger signe under the weels

Luckily they are laying down !!

911DT. Is that Donald Trump?

This is a excellent shot! I feel like I'm in the cockpit with the captain. Seriously, this in one of the bet landing shots I've seen...

Look at the guy sitting right beneath the plane, as if nothing special happened at the moment! nice catch!

I don't think the spectator is as close at it seems. The shadow is an optical illusion and the man is probably closer to the edge of the left wing. You can see the suns reflection on the right side of the fuselage, casting a shadow down and to the left.

"go out of the sun^^"

Aaahh!

"The shadow is an optical illusion..."
No, look at the comm antenna on the vertical stab. The Sun is straight overhead.

Notice the danger sign in the background.

Aww, perfect sun, perfect beach, all it needs is a jet hurling towards your head! nice shot!

I'd love to be this guy!

Great photo from precious ((Philipsburg / St. Maarten)) collection

I hope they made it over the fence!

Sonesta advertising

That's one crazy pilot! Nice picture indeed, but a VERY dangerous manouver... Irresponsible!

I can't believe this a/c did clear the fence..... or did it ?

What a shot off. Absolutely no reason to land like that, even at SXM. Great photo though!

A very good shot, of a very poor pilot! Great photo!

Ex KLM pilot or what???

The guy is so scared he can't move!

Nice picture! I am surprised that no comment is made regarding the N number.

The most expensive parasol in the world!

Wow !

Flaring a little to soon/ fast.

What fence, tower ? ....

I want a room in that hotel,lol

Aaah Finally the shade is here!!!! - doubleC MW

4 red lights on the PAPI!

Amazing shoot!! ...

Seriously, if the guy stood up and jumped, he would've touched the landing gear! incredible!

Think the PAPI might have been 4 green on that... shining through the grass ;-)

OMG! amazing picture, I think he's a little high, aha :)

Holy Cow-that iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiissss looooooooooooow!

Those General Electric CF700 sure was a treat for the person sitting below the aircraft.

To the person wondering if its Trump, I doubt it, theres a cuban flag on the tail...

Is he trying to land on the beach

That has to be one of the lowest approaches ever. That guy could literally stand up and touch the landing gear. I hope nobody was riding the fence, because they would have been run over.

'Yes,' the Wide-Body Heavy Jets have to come across the Beach 'Low,' but this Guy in a Falcon Business Jet is just showing off and absolutely did not need to be that 'Low' over St Maarten's Maho Beach! Princess Juliana's runway 10/28 is 7,546 feet long, more than enough for a little 'Falcon!' The Guy's a 'Hotdog,' and as far as Jets go, He's got a little 'Wiener!'
