Landing in St Maarten - Cabin View

[Supershanker123]

Its twice as worse when there are 100 cars and people watching you land..... lots of pressure..... Cudos to the pilot.

[RuneScapeForDummies]

there is no ils at that airport. so every plane is making a manual landing.

[virtualgamer22]

Ok thank you

[virtualgamer22]

What time did you fly there?? Summer? Fall? Spring?

[Joxershorts]

That was in the winter of '06

[Mp5xPAISLEYxMp5]

Yes it is a very hard approach to do, I have done it a few times with a 747. It's very challenging and exiting.

[atvmaster281]

On the simulator right?

[yoyoyoyoshua]

@atvmaster281 no

[bentleynuts321]

so your a real pilot?

[kfirie]

likewise, 777 though

[yoyoyoyoshua]

@kfirie what do you mean

[pilot7893]

I think every time an airplane lands there, the passengers should go up and congradulate the pilots on their way out. I mean, it is a VERY hard approach to make. And yes, I know I spelt congradulate wrong

[ee000011]

@pilot7893 I think that's why they keep the cockpitdoor locked.

[catrachocolo]

@pilot7893 It's not a very hard approach. Straight line right to the beginning of the runway, nothing in your way, excellent weather most of the time. Ist is actually a pretty easy approach. Try Tegucigalpa in Honduras or Lukla in Nepal or Saint Barts in the Caribbean for a hard approach. Sint Maarten just looks spectular because of the beach and the road just in front of the runway, but a pilot doesn't give a shit what's in front of a runway as long as it is not high.

[Musicman1582]

@pilot7893 It's not a hard approach, the take off is difficult. It's like any other approach, except the airport is surrounded by sea - not land. :/

[blast616]

that was a really nice landing

[carlosJV09]

do u ask if u can record the landing or something like that

[bitemysausage]
