Fatality: in the Caribbean, the plane blew a tourist

A tourist was in the vicinity of the aircraft.

On the Caribbean beach on the island of Saint-Martin tourist died because of exposure to the flow of air from the engine of a low flying passenger plane.

Maho beach on the Caribbean island of St. Maarten is known for its proximity to the runway of Princess Juliana international airport. Planes take off almost over head rest — just at the height of 30 meters.

Many tourists are watching with interest the landing or take-off huge ships, often forgetting about their own safety. It happened this time.

Seeing taxiing for takeoff, the aircraft, holidaymakers are almost hanging on the fence that separates the beach from the airfield. Flew flight number 457 of the airline Caribbean Airlines.

Once Boeing 737-800 aircraft started their engines, the 57-year-old woman from New Zealand who watched the liner from behind the fence, just blew a jet of air from the engines and she hit her head on concrete block.

According to local police, the woman was sent to the medical centre Sint Maarten, where she died from her injuries.
