[@oldschoolnomad813]

The JT8D engines on the MD-80 don't spool up nearly as fast as the newer turbo fans. With the short runway they have to have max thrust prior to starting there roll as they use up a large amount of runway prior to rotation.

I was there in January of 1986. So peaceful at the beach. Only a handful of people. Now it looks totally ruined with all the people and beach bars that sprung up. We basically had the beach to ourselves.

[@HvdH-Plane]

I like to think so, but in recent years thousands of tourists have been coming to the island on cruise ships and the airport is the main attraction

[@Judy-y7o]

@@HvdH-Plane Really? The airport is the main attraction? It was pretty cool to be laying on the beach and have the planes fly directly over us. They were soooo low. Worst part, was laying/sitting on the beach when they would take off. The pelting of the sand did hurt. We were there during the Challenger disaster. Just happened to see it on TV. So Sad. So strange, because we were in St. Croix when the plane hit the bridge over the Potomac River during a snow storm, and the pilot never de-iced again before takeoff.

Having worked as a ramp (tarmac) employee, I know understand the “thrill” of being that close to these giant metal birds, it’s awe inspiring. Along with that, the jet blast kicks up enough dust to sand blast your face, risking eye injuries. The other risk is damage to your hearing. It’s almost unbearable.

[@BrucexfromxCanada]

St. Maarten Jet Blast Issue: The habit of holding onto the airport fence to feel the jet blast is absurd! People have been killed doing this. However from watching a lot of aviation videos and having a long technical background, I se a possible solution.Given also that local auhtorities cannoit close the road as it would stand local residents, it might be feaible to exchange thst fence for a strong cement wall forther protected by engineered runway material on the runway side. This would have two potential effects: 1) The solid wall would sim;ly block the jet blast from the beachgoers ending their dangerous sport. 2) The engineered material might well serve to save lives and damage in the unusual event that a plane had to make an emergency landing coming in from ther mountain side. this is especially notable as a plane landing this way would have to make a fast vertical descemnt to avoid th mountains and still touch down early enough to have enough runway to stop, that especially if the emergency were to happen with concurrent problems, such as wet runway, reverse thruster problems and more. Also travel agents booking flights into Princess Juliana should be required to warn all passengers explicitly every time such a booking is done. also public notices in travel agencies, online etc. need to explicitly warn about the concern anbd when the wall is done, explain why theis was necessary to protect lives in spoite oif tourists not heeding previous warnings!

[@slowpoke4557]

@@BrucexfromxCanada i agree and disagree with you. I agree that people should be warned (as if they aren't already lol) but I disagree on ending this "sport" as far more people are enjoying it than not. Ending it would also take away from some tourism. This appears to be somewhat of a well known tourist attraction and I myself am actually contemplating on breaking my rule of NO FLYING just to experience this.

[@Dan-jg7zl]

If only it could land on such a short runway. Would be crazy to see that one day.

[@DocMicrowave]

The jet blast would probably be similar or not much better then the 747. I think the MD would still be #1. Engines are so much closer together than any other air craft. Probably nearly doubling the force of the Jet blast. The area of the jet blast seems tighter but much more concentrated and intense. On all other aircraft the engines are much further apart and probably don't build on each others output, therefore the force of the blast is wider and less concentrated. Just a guess.

[@hudge73]

Wow......I honestly thought that KLM 747 was automatically No.1 but then happy to discover that my favorite the "Mad Dog"MD80 took the top spot and understandably so. In my opinion, one the reasons being Its two engines being mounted at the tail compared to on the wings of other jets, placed the crowds of people closer to the enormous thrust generated at take off. Its a pity that the MD 80s are being replaced with newer more fuel efficient aircraft.

[@HvdH-Plane]

I think that the jet stream of the two engines combined to a very strong jetstream - focused on the middle area - like you see in the video where in the middle jet blast the people roll down the beach and a few meters to both sides, the people stay nearly without any influence from the jet blast. In the middle you will have about 300 km / h speed of the jet-stream.

[@davep9266]

The only reason the MD won is because the girls tits were blown out of her dress.

[@DocMicrowave]

@@HvdH-Plane Yeah, exactly right. The close proximity of the two engines complimented each other and concentrated the air blast into a tighter area, instead of being spread out over a wider area like the 747 and other planes.
