Post by: norge on June 04, 2011, 09:01:26 am
Ok, yesterday, an Orbit Airlines 747 stood parked at St. Maartens Princess Juliana Airport.

Spot the jumbojet.

Then the baggage handlers came.

A few minutes later the plane was taxiing to the runway.

Then the Orbit is lifting off...

You know, you are taking off in the wrong direction, aren't you? The mountain range is quite dangerous, so the takeoff towards the beach would be safer.

But really nice, where did you fly to?

Almost all planes take off towards the mountains at St. Maarten ;)

Originally I planned to fly to Miami, but I just flew around the airport.
