Default RE: WAY TOO LOW!

IF, repeat IF, that KLM 744 really did go that low then the commander should have been sacked, period, because he showed crassly poor, dangerous, airmanship. I doubt if this really did happen after KLM's accident at Tenerife north with the PA 747.

Just look at that wheel clearance, distance from start of paved surface, and the displaced threshold markers. No, its surely Photoshop or similar. !

Never been to SXM but Salzburg is very similar with a huge granite mountain facing you on landing !
