Plane landing next to beach

I don't think I want to stand right there in the path of the plane landing

I know that place - St. Maarten island I'd love to go there someday.
Can you imagine a big 747 landing in near to me.

I would love to be there. I love airplanes. I would probably sit there for hours just watching them land.

I would. My hubby loves airplanes and took over 3,000 pictures of commerical planes. I love the part when we were too close to the ocean when landing sideways...you could see fishes jumpin in and out of water.

I've seen that many times on the other website, I'm aware of that issue. It looks rather too close to a beach.

Wow this takes a lot of skills to land this heavy jumbo plane! In some areas some are extreme landing places that takes a lot of risks. I'm amazed that it's still operable.

Yeah, I bet most of the commerical pilots were in the military.

As I understand it, (I could be wrong) 747 is one of easiest plane to fly. Alot of airplanes today can land themselves, pilots now just are there to make sure nothing happens and take over if something really goes wrong.
