PJ-WIS (cn 447) Diving down to the airport! And somehow that cross in the background seems quite fitting.

The pilot should be the great grand son of Charles Lindbergh. He is just trying to ask the SUV drivers: "Which way is Ireland?". (Ali Aminzadeh)

I need seriously think again about all that I knew about airports. Outstanding picture by the way.

That is quite a glideslope St.Barthelemy has.

Absolutely amazing capture. Perfect timing.

Is that cross a memorial for the Air Caraibes Twin Otter that crashed in that spot on theat same approach back in 2001?

A visitor from United States posted Thu October 27, 2011:
I love St. Bart's photos - this one captures the element of absurdity in the approach! Having never been to the island, is the cross to mark the site of a plane accident or something else?

A visitor from Switzerland posted Thu October 27, 2011:
...and don't pick flowers during approach!!! Great angle!

The cross on the left,position of the aircraft...Just make me feel bad!

A visitor from France posted Thu October 27, 2011:
This approach is classic, the spotter stay only after the top of the hill !

A visitor from Denmark posted Wed October 26, 2011:
Lol! Kinda ironic with the cross in the background.. is it there due to an air accident?

A visitor from - posted Wed October 26, 2011:
Is this kind of approach common at SBH? Is that why there's a big Cross just there? :) Incredible luck getting this shot!

A visitor from - posted Wed October 26, 2011:
Wow!

A visitor from - posted Wed October 26, 2011:
Bly me, what airport?!

A visitor from - posted Wed October 26, 2011:
O_O Bloody hell that's one hair raising approach.

A visitor from Germany posted Wed October 26, 2011:
Wonderful angle to view this spectacular approach!
