I haven't seen the Basil Jones airstrip so I can't comment, other than to query your statement. It's not just a question of length, though that in itself is a major concern, but of the ground under the runway. A wide-bodied airliner is massively heavy, and all surfaces it will travel over need very substantial foundations. I'm quite confident they don't exist there now, and that building them, which is certainly theoretically possible, would be an enormous and extremely costly and disruptive exercise.

In any case, there's a tremendous difference between a C130 and an Airbus. And between landing and being able to take off again. A C130 can land and stop in three times its own length - I've seen it many times.
