This is Saba Island, is my first map that I make for simpleplanes, is not perfect because is my first map but I hope next map I make I can make it way better.

Juancho E Yrausquin Airport, Saba

Located on the Dutch Caribbean island of Saba, Juancho E Yrausquin Airport has the shortest runway in the world available for commercial use. It is 1,312ft long and only allows regional propeller aircraft flights provided by Winair from nearby islands.

The runway has three cliff edges over the sea, with the fourth side enclosed by high hills. Services began operating mid-1962 following support from politicians, including the Netherlands Antilles Minister of Finance Juancho Yrausquin, who the airport is named after.

Enjoy
Happy flying
