For the red/white/blue tails I put this AA, AF and then BA.

NB: I have little to no nationalism or patriotism so doesn't affect my ranking.

Maho Beach/St. Maarten

I was in St. Maarten for a little while last week, so I had to visit every aviation enthusiast's favorite beach and take a photo...

The hour or so that I was there, everyone was landing on 28L/R, and most were taking off via 1L/R.

I'm not that knowledgeable when it comes to that kind of stuff, heck I'm not even sure I got the runway names/numbers right.
