I don't know if it's just the camera angle, but this approach seems low. Wow. :shock:

That's the NORMAL approach into St. Barts.

What is this "Special" license needed that the article mentions?

It's probably a clunky way of saying you need a rating, or some other sort of special qualification to land there.

TFFJ is on the Special PIC Qualification Airport List, and thus requires special PIC qualification before operating an aircraft there.
