a 747 is able to land and take off at St Maarten because the aircraft never takes off or lands with full fuel. 747 usually make a stopover somewhere. When taking off without full fuel, the jet's takeoff speed is less so that the jet can takeoff in a much shorter length of runway
None of this is true. Length needed has too many variables like weight of aircraft, amount of auto breaking and reverse thrust, runway condition, engine type, etc. Your facts probably come from a fully loaded 747. The 747's at st. maarten aren't fully fueled.
@mrkosta2000 actually it says 9,902 ft for 747-400, 10,466 for 747-100-200 and B747-300 10,893 ft at MTOW for takeoff and 747's don't takeoff at MTOW at this airport
im suprised the area they fly over isnt closed off. i mean an airport near me has planes fly over a road and it has traffic lights to stop people going on the road when planes land higher than this. theres gonna be an acident sometime.
they acutally HAVE such signs but as long as ist's allowed to go there people will do as it really is breathtaking to see a take-off or a landing of a 747 such close.

OUCH!
FACT: {per Wikipedia}
A Boeing 747 needs 11745 ft/3580 meters to take off.
It needs only 7546 ft/2300 meters to land.
THIS airport (St Maarten) is 7707 ft/2349 meters long
ONLY 49 meters to spare on landing?
AND
How the hell to they take off?
Sand getting in someones eyes is peanuts compared to the "other" possibilities.

Hey guess what!
You are wrong. They do not have a full tank of fuel and therefore need less runway. KLM stops in Curacao and fills up before crossing the Atlantic.
