THE ICONIC ST BARTH LANDING

- **THIS ONE IS FOR THE PILOTS**
Probably the best compilation of landings in st barth
ever put together.
I start with my training to land in st barth with my Cheyenne.
Unfortunately after months of correspondence with
the St Barth airport authority, I was informed
that my special landing qualification,
which I had since the early 80's
was no longer valid.
The rule changed in 2017 and require
A recurrency training every 6 months
In the same category and class of aircraft.
Making it totally unpractical unless you fly there regularly.
This video demonstrates how challenging it is
to land on this iconic 2100ft airstrip.
Runway 10 landing with it's very steep approach
and deadly wind shears on short final
and runway 28 landing always negotiated with tail wind,
and a tight turn on final,
with no possibility of go around at the last minute.
There is very little margin for error! - Krátké a kreslené filmy
There are many St. Barth landing videos in CZcams. This is the best one. Merci.
Hi Christophe, I see your beloved N321LB was recently sold. Hope all is well and thank you for all the great videos of her and the good times you spent flying her!
Breathtaking video. You remind me of why I love to fly...
Unlike some people that post videos bragging about how they survived their poor decisions, I have always been impressed by your "professionalism" as a GA pilot.
That PC-12 is just amazing. Making it look easy.
That was the perfect landing!!!
Amazing video. Thanks so much for sharing your preparation process!
Amazing, Christophe, it was me who asked you for a pilot video - thank you! What people who have never been there don't understand is that it's also a downslope on RW10. Foreflight says 2.08%, but it's downhill the entire runway. I tell people that landing there feels like being dropped off the side of a building. You can't understand it until you experience it.
And that was a wonderful tribute to your father in the last video. It's obvious now why you're such a superb pilot. Is your father still alive?
Happy new year, and thanks for the video.
I have a totally crazy idea:
Convince Mike Patey, once he finishes Draco X, to go there, then ask for takeoff clearance on runway 28...
If Draco X has the same performance numbers as the original Draco, it should be a piece of cake - during the Oshkosh STOL games, he had to limit his climb-outs due to them being classed as aerobatic (Draco could climb a sustained 30 degree angle with no trouble, I think Mike said once he could sustain a 40 degree angle... Oshkosh limited him to 30 degrees... ;-))
I'm with it. Heck, Draco could launch from the 28 numbers and probably *choose* whether to climb out straight ahead or turn around and go out to sea. The recommended glidepath for 10 is 6 degrees. If Draco could do 30 easily? Yeah. :)
You really stuck that landing. Unreal.
I kno this maybe a bit late to mention but I just bought ur 414 replica on my flight sim...n omg I'm already in love...n u fly the same places I do lol it's like I live ur virtual life haha 😄. N we both live in tampa ... Thank u for the videos.
Awesome video and your Cheyanne is a beauty!!
Beautiful. Thanks for sharing. Looking forward to your next video. HNY
Christophe. Outstanding video, totally inspiring as always. I don't know how you do it, the best avation videos on yotube without exception.
Christophe- I really enjoyed this vid and watching your entire November trip in the Cheyenne. The practice landings at TPF were excellent prep for TFFJ.
I think they should’ve “grand-fathered” you in as far as being able to land there! Anyway, I’ve been all over the Caribbean with my E55 Baron and have learned that one can never plan too much. You’re father would be very proud of you!
I remember that landing well from when you originally posted the video.
It's a bit sad they changed the rules but I guess it's in everyone's best interest that they did so.
I always enjoy your videos! Hope to see more soon!
Great video! PAY2 XL, nice aircraft!!
Awesome work there Christophe. As a former 414 pilot/owner, very impressed you got that big boy down there.
Fantastic. I really want to go and see this tricky approach in person.
Absolutely nailed that landing mate, always impressive watching planes land there.
Well done, Sir! I've been to St Barth before and was one of those cheesy tourists standing just below the runway. So much fun.
Thats the "real deal" runway for sure.
I'm betting you recertify! If not, you can hold onto your previous landing there in your 414.
Thanks for this video and don't be a stranger!!
The problem isn't rectifying in and of itself, it's that you have to do it ever 6 months so it makes it impractical for him
I only have student pilot hours. However as a passenger, I've flown into St. Barths. What an incredible experience!
Nailed it. Fantastique
salue christophe // félicitations d'un suisse pour cette manifique atterissage en 2015 !! // jusque aujourd-hui je ne jamais vue en youtoube un planeur piston fait une atterisage si controllée / stabilisée et si court..... = étonnant !
Yay another amazing video by the one and only Christophe Jouany
This Is really exciting, I enjoyed this video in each part, thank you for this work!. Only one book I was reading without to stop in my life that is "Wind, Sand & Stars". Antoine de Saint-Exupery lived in Argentina working for the Aeropostale, he carried the correspondence to Paraguay leaving from Buenos Aires at 7pm when one day he have a fault and must to land in a field near the city of Concordia in a private property of a family with specials girls, he remained there repairing your airplane so much days, the little girls they had exotic animals like pets and this meant for Antoine one big learning; from this experience is thought-out is based your book "The Little Prince" (El Principito). Well, I hope are all ok there, greetings from Argentina!⭐
nice flying from the Tradewinds PC-12 & the Caravan on amphibious floats .....have you ever flown into Courchevel ?
Hello French pilot, thank you for your video. I will be flying in your area in less than a week.
Hey Christophe, beautiful video as usual! I’m so sorry that you can’t fly into St. Bart’s right now. I do hope you’ll share more of your flying adventures with us. There are tons of Caribbean islands with short runways! Just promise me you won’t try Saba Island! Lol!😝👍🏽
Always great videos! Love the content! Find a reason to make some more on a regular basis! Blue Skies!
Great video Christophe! Sorry we couldn't see you do it again...
Just play it again.
@@raleedy Ummm.....I meant do the approach again
Christophe, your flying and video skills have always been fantastic. Please keep them coming as you continue to make adventures as me and my kids enjoy them lol. Happy new year from Houston!
whaaaaatttt a nasty Towchdown..... Sooo perfect. Congrats, great video
Great one with the 414 !!!
WOW !!!! Awesome !!! Your landing was PERFECT !!!! Better than any of the other ones. I just jumped on to your channel :) I'm in :):)
Thanks !!!
Nice job I would love to see that in real life. Wow nice work
amazing vid. thanks for sharing! TFFJ is my favorite to fly at in the simulator
Victory loves preparation!
you nailed it!
Maybe they will make a special exemption for you. Since you've landed 2 types of fully loaded piston twin there safely already.
Wow Amazing landing Captain. minute 05:03
Fucking perfect touchdown Airman! My hat is off to you. ❤🛬
Great video!
Thanks christope
Great video.
If you want to get recurrent in SBH, I can fly you there and then hook you up with an instructor in the island.
The rule states 1 landing every 6 months to avoid needing a checkout. I do around 300-400 landings a year in the PC-12 at SBH.
i saw a video of a king350 in saint barth o read king air books and landing distance required was longer. chek video its in youtube approach spoed was 93 knots really amazing
Awesome flying - I thought that the one PC12 landed a bit long, but the clip was cut short, hope he made it okay?! Awesome airfield. At least you'd already operated into there, sorry to hear it was impractical to return.
Looks like the Cheyenne is for sale. I hope that means it’s “upgrade” time again. :-)
Sorry you couldn’t land the Cheyenne there. I just went to St. Barts and I’m hooked. I hope to return every year. I arrived on a Tradewind PC12 and they greased it on.
The song by M83 is a beautiful touch.
Now THAT'S how you do that and in a C414 to boot! Stall horn all the way to touchdown.
Hey Chris. Hope all is well. I’ve been following your videos since you went for the Baron to 414XX, then to the Cheyenne. Very exited to see what new adventures the near future will bring. Would you ever fly your Cheyenne to South America, or Europe? I know the range of the plane is not the best, but it definitely has the reliability needed and something like... Patagonia, Argentina would make a great story!!!
Good to see this pilot again. Shame he could not bring his new turboprop in.
Excellent job Christ ,,freaking Aviation Rules make things unpractical
Hey, nice work. Only one of the PC-12s nailed it as well as you. Very well done.
Lol on that runway landing safely is already nailing the landing 🤣 being smooth is a bonus. The winds can be pretty wild there and getting the aircraft down as fast as possible is preferred over getting that butter landing.
I'm sure it's a wind thing, but why not approach from the ocean end of the runway?
Amazing landing! It didnt look like you needed the wheels. You could have done it with 3 sticks in the place of the gears! :)
It would be cool to seeMike Patty bring Scrappy there and land t real short.
02:52 Down elevator while heavy braking.. Why??
Aw man! you robbed us of the final and touchdown cockpit view :( … but great speed control
Are you upgrading to a Jet?
Can't believe that airport is legal
Ah ben c'est simpa barth quand meme
Why are you selling the plane?
Where did you see it for sale?
