Hi all!
Have you ever heard of Cat Cay Airport? It’s situated about a 100 miles offshore from Miami Florida. This airport is home to one of the worlds shortest runways. The runway stretches just 1349 feet long. That’s just 30 feet longer than Saba. The approach is difficult so I recommend you practice, have fun, and good luck!
