Video Not Working? Fix It Now

This video includes over an hour of incredible action at St Jean airport on the island of St Barthélemy during a recent trip abroad, this is a part 3 as I visited here multiple times now and loved it so have kept coming back to the Caribbean!

Filmed freehand using a 4K Sony AX53 video camera

Date : 3rd February 2025 + some extras on 6th Feb

The airport is situated between a hill and beach at either end making it a tricky place to land. Especially coming over the hill almost aircraft tend to perform a nose dive manoeuvre to be able to touchdown within the limited amount of runway available

St Barts is a secluded island and the tiny airport is the only gateway apart from Boats/Ferries meaning all flights are mostly from neighbouring Carribean islands which have larger airports.
This is why you see plenty of Winair Twin Otters back and forth from St Maarten aswell as the St Barth Commuter Grand Caravans and Tradewind operate services from further afield, those being to San Juan

Not many titles so you can enjoy the intense approach
