This picture was taken by Ludovic Aubert, Imapress/Globe Photo and was published in Life magazine. The location where the picture was taken is Simpson Bay, St. Martin a Dutch and French island, and is so tiny that its Juliana International Airport abuts one of the famed Caribbean beaches."

Thanks for that amazing photo.. Just Unbelievable that it is for real...and not a computer mock up. It Looks as if those people could reach up and touch the plane. Very scary.

There are quite a few good videos of airliners landing at the runway threshold just beyond Maho beach, St. Maarten. Also planes starting the take of run with children trying to hang on to the perimeter fence.
