| Or you can use the VASI, and just make sure not to make it a habbit of landing on the blastpad/stopway area because its not allowed. And remember the speed of your aircraft is going to change depending on what aircraft you have. |

i know its not allowed but if landing on it allows you to walk away from your landing dry then its worth it, and i thought it was a PAPI system at TNCM
