Exclamation Mind Your Heads- Near Miss Plane Landing
I remember being on one of these in the Carribean once. I was only 18 so thought nothing of it.

Mind your heads! Plane misses motorists by inches at tiny tropical air strip | the Daily Mail

Have a look at this I think the USA have larger carriers than this runway.

The old Hong Kong Airport had an odd approach, seemed you were flying between skyscapers.
