    Some of the people who were on the trip with me are on this Islander, having been to St Barts, to experience the landing ??

    Didn’t see people being blown at the fence !! :confused: This view from the other side of Maho Bay …. look at the guy with the flag ! he seems to appear every time a Ansel Air MD 82/3 taxies out to place itself at the very end of the runway, nearest to the famous fence …. his flag is as is on the tail of the aircraft (see earlier photo) but it certainly works !!

    And a lovely little aircraft so far from its birthplace !

    WoW … Thank you all for the nice comments …. Yes if you are ever thinking of going … just do it ! The Ian Allen Tour I was with was supurb ! This place and Miami International, a ramp tour at Opa Locka, and visits to two airports on Puerto Rico on the way there and on the way back to Florida ! So a million more photos to come 🙂 …..

    Keith.

    The blue hue below the landing shots is the reflection of the blue sea in Maho Bay, and sometimes the golden sand from the beach !!

    I was there for a week several years ago 15ish ? and went on an organised coach trip to various parts of the island, one stop was at a British war cemetry attached to a Naval installation ….. they do not like cameras at all !! before we were allowed to disembark the coach we were all “looked at” in depth by an armed sailor ! to ensure we had no cameras !!
    You must remember that, technicaly, Greece is still “at war” ????

    But a supurb place for looking at many era’s of life all on a small island !

    I wish I could make this photo larger ??? It was taken at Stansted, showing a Tudor hovering above a collection of Prentices, during the days when Stansted was overflowing with aircraft of all sizes and shapes ??

    Happy Daze !
