Difficult Landing Approach at St. Barts

This is famous as one of the more difficult landing approaches for pilots. Prevailing winds mean you have to approach over a ridge and drop down fast onto the very short runway and stop quick or risk going off the end into the sea. Pilots need a special license to be allowed to land here. Our landing was pretty straightforward, in tougher wind it can be pretty hairy.
