Princess Julian International Airport (TNCM) A scenario we recommend trying in your flight simulator is experiencing a landing on Runway 21 with strong southwest wind conditions that will test your skills as a pilot and allow you to gain the confidence needed when making this approach in real life. Wind frequently rolls off the Mesa causing strong downdrafts, which means pilots facing these conditions need to take the appropriate precautions.
While it is scenic, this airport has had several notable crashes due to the unique wind patterns caused by the surrounding terrain. Settled on a 500-foot-tall Mesa at 4,830 feet above sea level, KSEZ remains one of the most challenging airports to land and take off from in the State of Arizona.
