Have a trip out there soon and I know they have extended the runway to 4650'. Anyone been in there in a Challenger or GII/GIII? Our principle says his buddy's pilot says strong crosswinds therefor they are using ST. Thomas and they operate a Falcon. Thinking maybe they just don't like the shorter runways. Neither do I however the numbers look decent if we are pretty light. Any info on typical winds, the runway is 7/25 so it should be well aligned for in the Caribbean?? Approaches to both runways look to be over water and no obstructions from photos I have seen. Planning daytime arrival and departure so the nightime instrument approach is not a factor. Any info would be great, if you have used St. Thomas as an alternate, any experience with the Ferry over to Tortola?
