Hey all

I'm off to SXM in oct and want to rent a plane to fly round the island if possible.

Can anyone advise if this is at all possible? I've searched and found nothing so far! If anyone knows anyone who rents planes there please let me know :)

Cheers

Ok - at least with ICAO designators you can tell what country's being talked about.

But using IATA designators in a GA forum is being a bit sad - so - where the f**k are you talking about?

SXM = TNCM = ST.MAARTEN but you are right, why not use plain language that everyone understands!

For the benefit of those who don't know where SXM relates to and especially those with a 1/4" fuse, here is a clue::)

Anyways Jamo, best to restrain the use of airport identifiers to the widely known ones ie: LAX LGW and LHR. The others less well known are not always exactly at the front of ones mind!
