If anyone wants to get a clue what small means in Europe, see
the Powerpoint slides under alt.binaries.pictures.aviation.
The Zurich Airport got in trouble 'cause of it's approach area,
but landing in St.Marteen seams to be fun. So whats the problem in
Zurich?

One term: The Green Party!

Yup, plus the fact that there's mountains enclosing the airport on all sides
with only narrow paths through them.

St Maarten of course is not in Europe, it's an island in the Caribbean. With
an approach that has 50nm of open water right in front of the runway,
there's little to obstruct you (and no greens there either).
At Schiphol, the ONLY obstruction are the greens who now have gotten so far
as to get the government to impose noise abatement procedures and strict
restrictions over the sea out to the 12 mile zone.

European greens are working hard to destroy our economy and prepare for the
communist revolution (they all spawned from communist and anarchist parties)
which will be inevitable once the proletariat is jobless because of the
greedy capitalists (who of course will be shot).
As people with jobs are less likely to agree with that worldview, everyone
needs to loose his job.
Using the "environment" as an excuse to implement ever more rules that
strangle companies and free enterprise, they adopted that excuse for their
own political agenda.
