Can you even imagine how cool it would be to spend a day on the beach there! Notice, in almost every pic all heads are watching the aircraft.

This is becoming a hot topic - might have to write an article about St. Maarten.

These are the most fantastic videos of aircraft landings that I have ever seen.

We honeymooned in St. Maarten, those pics are for real. We sat on that beach for about 3 hours one day and watched them while drinking fresh Caribs.
I highly recommend the trip...the approach is so unbelieveable... |

If it's credit you're after, why not make yourself known?!? |

|
|
| I want to know, do they close the beach when a jet or plane needs to make a emergency landing at the airport? And, the same for if Air Force 1 lands there? |

From what I can tell the beach is very short and a road is between it and the airport fence.
I doubt that AF1 will be visiting a small place like that any time soon.
