I Love DA but the landing is a bit scary for me.
Ya, what can I say… ..that river bringing down a lot of silt wi pal.
A great image, like Google Earth. Reminds me of the first time I flew into Melville Hall.
im loving it, awwww
not bad, not bad @ all
Ey, I didn’t realise the water by the airport was so dirty and mucky…look at how brown it is compared to the deep blue sea! It’s all the pollution man!
thats a lovely view but for corrections, is that really 3000 feet? looks like pretty much 8000 feet.
Looks like about 17,000 feet.
Pretty interesting view of Melville Hall from another angle.
Hmm I wonder – Was the picture taken from a LIAT (or another airline) flying over Dominica’s north-east coast on its way to another island or was this from a flight preparing to land at Melville Hall?
i would suggest you go to the airport and observe how they take/land inorder to correct your own statement!
ABsoculutly….BEAUTIFUL!!!
I travelled through this airport in 1973,74,75 and the last time 1976.I still have in remembrance, when the plane was landing, I thought it was crashing. I prayed loudly, mightily and with all my strength, my head between my knees. I am sure the pilot heard me.The taxi driver told me, when leaving the plane, I was dancing and spoke to them very loudly. I have great compassion to people who has lost their mind because I know better.Although I had lost mine only a few minutes from fear. It was in 1974, that year there were a few plane crashes around the world.
And your point is?……..
get to the point!
