The World's Shortest Runways
Landing on one of the shortest runways in the world isn't an easy task, and can make for hair raising approaches. Located on the beautiful St. Barts in the French West Indies, the runway measures only 2,133 ft and makes for some hair-raising approaches. Pilots landing at St. Barts need a special license and a whole lot of confidence. Fortunately there have been "only" two fatal accidents. Definitely not for those with a fear of flying.
