That's got to be Photo-shopped. Surely a plane would never come that close to a crowded beach!

I don't know if it's real or not.
But if it were, I'd want to sit and watch.

Nope, that's real...Princess Juliana, St. Maarten, Netherlands Antilles. The beach is Maho Beach and there are hundreds of pictures like that of airplanes coming in right over the beach; the end of the runway is just across that access road. The airport only has one runway, and there's a mountain at the other end, so most approaches are made over Maho Beach. Granted, that 747 was a little low, but not THAT low compared to others. If you go to airliners.net and look for their most popular pictures of all time, probably two-thirds of them are shots taken at Maho Beach.

It isn't photoshopped. I know a couple of people who have been to St Maarten.
