TV Documentary (2011)
English title: The Epic of the Pioneers of Aviation in the Caribbean

Starring:
Pierre Brouwers (Director/narrator)

Caribbean Islands are at the crossroad of North and South America and their tropical climate makes this chain of small territories some kind of paradise.
But airplanes changed the way to come in and ferry from one to another as we can now count in hours instead of days. Nevertheless, their small size keep them from mass tourism especially for those with the most demanding airport, as like as Aéroport Saint-Jean–Gustave III-Saint-Barthélemy (SBH/TFFJ) where most of the taxiing scenes and landing/take-off were shot.
