I visited SXM in 2007. It was great. Saw all the heavies coming in... incredible hardly can describe it. Glad everyone got in safely on this flight.

That's crazy low for a go around. Looked like they were getting some cross winds on final there. Check the angle of the plane when you can see it clearly.

It is truly a great plane-spotting area. The day we were there the beach was crowded with people and they were not standing off to the side as this cameraman was. It seemed that if you reached up you could touch the wheels. We videoed a KLM 747 and it was amazing that it could clear the fence and still stop before the hill/mountain at the other end of the runway.
