I have landed in Cebu…in a 747 no less. That runway goes from one shore of the island all the way across to the other shore. There was a cow pasture on one side…at least there was 12 years ago. The landing was dicey, looked like we were landing on the water…but the take off would make you lose whatever was in your bowels.
Wake island was a pucker maker back in the day of weak airliner engines.
