KLM Boeing 747 landing on St.Maarten Airport
14. October 2008

While searching for some aviation videos on the Internet, I recently discovered this video of a Boeing 747 landing on St.Maarten (Princess Juliana International) Airport (PJIA). Its runway has a total lenght of 7000 feet (2180 meter), which is pretty short for aircraft of this size. As a result these large aircraft have to make an extremely low approach, sometimes just 30 metres above the sun tanning people at the beach.

Here some photos of St.Maarten Airport:

Isn’t that dangerous? I enjoyed riding in an airplanes especially if I am beside the window.
