Spectacular landings at St Barts crazy airport - most challenging airport worldwide?
From airport St. Maarten for a day plane spotting to the famous Airport St. Barts, Gustaf III (SBH) on the Caribbean Island of Saint Barthelemy, for amazing shots of airplane approaches and landings in gusty crosswinds. Both are among the most dangerous airports in the world. Saint Martin Airport Princess Juliana (SXM) is No. 4 and St. Barth (SBH) is No. 3 and both have spectacular things to offer. Main Sections: 00:00 Approach and Landing at the hill with roundabout and steep downhill 02:38 Low landing over car traffic 04:06 Close up view Winair Twin Otter with take-off 07:38 Steep landing St. Barth Commuter Twin Otter and tak-off 08:33 Airport runway view from the beach 09:02 ! Change to strong and gusty wind conditions ! 12:10 Great landings in the evening sun St. Barth airport places high demands on the pilots and that's because: the approach takes place over a hill with a lot of car traffic, then a steep descent to the runway RWY 28 with only 646 meters and this ends just before the sea. On the hill, the planes fly just a few meters above the car traffic and the descent is often complicated by gusty crosswinds. Most aircraft arrive from St. Maarten with airlines from St. Barth Commuter, WINAIR and Tradewind Aviation - flying 10 minutes and fly De Havilland DHC-6 Twin Otter, WINAIR Twin Otter and Pilatus PC-12/45 aircraft. Airport name of the French island of Saint-Barthélemy in the Caribbean until October 2015: Gustaf III Airport or Saint Barthélemy Airport or St. Jean Airport. New name from October 2015 on: Aéroport Rémy de Haenen (IATA code SBH, ICAO code TFFJ, officially Aéroport de Saint-Barthélemy-Rémy de Haenen.
