This little YouTube video shows the tricky approach for a landing at St. Maarten

Kinda like a couple places I took off and landed in Mexico-- but bigger.

Even without seeing the video------aaaaaagh!

But then I don't love flying--I suspect it has something to do with too many trips that each way was about 24 hours start to finish.  Including such wonderful things as nonstops from Houston to Hawaii or Detroit to Tokyo.

I never had to do the Newark to Hawaii one, though.
