Princess Juliana airport at St Maarten
This is the famous airport which the airplanes come in for landing straight above the beach!
You can see of the image how close the planes are to the beachstrip Maho beach.
There are lots of videos of this to be found at youtube.
Like this one:
St Maarten is a nice (French ?) island.

I would suggest removing the Air France photo unless you have permission from the photographer. It is a copyrighted image, and I will alert him to the use.
