June 15, 201114 yr Very nice screenshots.I just returned from SXM just three weeks ago and Princess Juliana is my favorite airport for watching traffic. Two observations. When taking off on runway 10 jet aircraft bank to the right to avoid terrain. I have never seen any jet turn left after takeoff. I have never seen any jet land on runway 28. This approach is just not used by commercial jets.EDITED BY MOD. | Windows 11 | ASUS ROG MAXIMUS Z790 HERO | i9-14900K | RTX 4090 | 64GB CORSAIR VENGEANCE DDR5 | 4TB Samsung 990 PRO M.2 | 2x 4TB Samsung 990 PRO M.2 | CORSAIR AX1600i ATX Titanium | LG C2 42 Inch 4K OLED |

This approach is just not used by commercial jets.Jeff,You are correct, as of a few years ago it has become "mandatory" to make that right turn when departing runway 10. Back in the 90's when I used to fly in and out of SXM a departing left turn was permissible depending on weight and climb capability of the aircraft. It was not uncommon back then to see a KLM or Air France 747 make a right turn, provided they met that criteria.Jets landing on runway 28 is a rarity, however landings are permissible in VMC conditions only and night landings are prohibited. I have actually witnessed BWIA in the days of operating the MD80s land on runway 28 (was 27 back then).
