Nice the company I fly for has couple, very similar flying as the one in the video, except no paved runways in our backyard, can't wait to upgrade on the Twin Otter.

St. Lucia on a rare west wind day can be ALMOST as fun. Haven't had the pleasure of doing it myself in a Metro yet. If only it wasn't paved...

Coming in from the other way isn't too shabby either
Nice! I had a short lived working experience with one of the operators flying out of there, CARICOM airways.
The East Caribbean doesn't really have any bush flying unfortunately, only further north in parts of DR and Haiti, still landing on Saba and St-Barth sounds pretty interesting. Ever been to the Grenadines? I was told there are some pretty cool airports there.

I think we have a 1900 out of SJU that goes down there. Don't know for sure.
SLU and SXM are probably the best I'll get down here unfortunately. I think a 99 could to St. Barths, not the Metro though. Might take vacation to St. Croix and get the instruction and endorsement. They have a small flight school there that does training in St. Barths.
Though CCS is kind of bush flying given the condition of the pavent! Hahaha
