Take a look at the island on Google earth. That's about the only flat spot on the whole island. I've seen planes come in from the other direction depending on winds. Much more sedate landing that way. Maybe I should upload that clip I took in 2017.

It's a really neat island. We only did a day trip over from St Martin, but I would have loved to have spent more time on the beaches there. It's a small, very rich island, lots of yachts and high end stores in Gustavia. But they let The Poors like me in to look around too..

The propellers are on the inside, the throttle is on the ceiling.... man, somebody was on drugs when they designed that plane! (I know, it's a DHC-6 Twin Otter, blah blah blah...)
I flew the Twin Otter for a while. The throttles being up top is awesome. So comfortable. My hands never got fatigued. I loved it. Wish it was more common.
Those Twin Otters are fine aircraft. I've seen them land on pretty much a stamp by using reverse commands. If I were ever to get a twin-engine all-purpose turboprop I would seriously consider a Twin Otter. They're not very fast, but their high versatility sure makes up for that, especially when one doesn't know where one will be going to in the future.
delawarepilot my thoughts exactly! It’s a tricky approach and I bet it’s a bugger for shear... also noticed they pull hard enough in the exaggerated flare to get a chirp from the stall warner. Yikes, that would be so easy to pancake it in if below Vref..... nah, sod that!!
I remember landing in St. Barth's back in 2014, really nice airport. There's a little French bakery just outside, you can sit there and watch the planes land.
Awesome :). Nice controlled stall into the ground. Great to see a professional at work. 1:43 was a skilled pitch up (more than a conventional flare from the nose down to nose up, while close to stalling, very skilful). Interesting camera angle too, good work.
@@Dannys-mb5xy The larger levers the pilot has his hands on are the throttles! They also are used for reverse thrust after landing. Next to them on the right are the prop levers used to regulate prop RPM! On the far right are the fuel levers which open or close he fuel flow. The engine control levers hanging from the top of the cockpit aren't unique to the Twin Otter! The old Catalina Flying Boats used a similar setup.
@@Valor_73737 That's interesting to know! Thanks! :-) Seems unusual compared with the throttles on a big commercial jet for example. The resting position of the windshield wipers seems unusual too, unlike those on a big jet which rest at the bottom of the windshield like on a car.

It was designed in the 1960’s; whilst the newer Viking ones have modern avionics, last time I looked the throttle controls were from that era. Its built primarily for reliability
It seemed to me like there was a small bounce, so presumably when the plane detects the plane is off the ground(little or no pressure on the landing gear) it thinks it's flying, so sounds the stall warning.
Reminds me of island hopping in the 80's on a Liat Douglas DC-3. First passengers (maybe 18 or so) then luggage in a net by the door behind the cockpit, followed by a kerosene bath through the vents during take off. Other than that it was quite pleasant.
Fantastic island, we anchored on the opposite side and hiked over to the intersection you see at the top of the mountain. The runway is not flat at the entrance and if you overrun your on the beach or a few feet more you are feet wet. Watched several landings and takeoffs over the few days we were visiting.
