The airport on the Greek island of Skiathos has gained a fair bit of notoriety due to its odd location — behind a small, winding road and next to a beach.

Such a location means that dozens of planes make extremely low landings, which can be — and are — observed by tourists on a daily basis.

In fact, airplanes landing and departing the Skiathos Airport — just grazing the heads of onlooking tourists — have become one of the island’s main tourist attractions.

Last week’s events were no exception.

With smartphone cameras ready, nearly a dozen tourists stood directly underneath an incoming British Airways Embraer E190 craft as it landed just feet away.

The plane’s turbulence even pushed a couple of onlookers off the wall where they had been perched for video recording.

One onlooker and self-proclaimed aviation enthusiast uploaded a YouTube video (see below) showing the landing — up close and personal.

The video shows other airplanes making low landings at Skiathos Airport. But they do not fly as low and close to tourists as the British Airways aircraft.
