Does anyone know if a small, private jet can land on St. Barths?

I do know and the runway is too short for any type of jet. Otherwise, the place would be loaded with private jets.

I believe that they require that all pilots must have completed special training for landing and take off to be allowed to fly in and out due to the dive down from the traffic circle and hard breaking to the end of the runway.

In short, if you can't do a dead stick landing and hit the numbers you have no business trying to land there.
