An overview of the airport on St Thomas showing a number of DC3's, a CV440 an Eastern Airlines Boeing 727 (these and Midway 737's were the only jets to use the airport) and, if you look carefully a C-46. The hangar on the right served as the terminal. The hill in the centre was in the process of being removed to improve airport safety.

It was intersting to watch these aircraft arrive as the runway was only just long enough for them. Interesting to watch, but even more interesting to be on board ! I arrived this day on a Prinair Heron which was far more sedate.

The aircraft is taxying into this idyllic seaplane base. The foreground shows a ramp that aircraft had to taxy up to leave the water. This necessitated the use of high power which caused a massive spray.

St. Thomas was notorious among pilots for its short (then 4,658 ft) runway; the B727 was the heaviest type authorised to use it, and even then only in one direction. After the fatal crash of an AA 727 there in 4.76, the airline suspended jet service to the island and introduced Convairliners. This 440 was originally Garuda's PK-GCT in 1.58 and was b/u at Carlsbad in 1993. My arrival at STT was by Eastern - 727.... but I left on a Dak!
