hong kong kai tak airport (1925 - 1998) 香港啟德機場
3:44
First of all, this is a collection from YouTube. I would like to thank all the enthusiasts from YouTube especially Mr. Boyd Kelly (airboyd of YouTube) which I used their best fragments to make this special Kai Tak video.
Kai Tak Airport VHHH (1925 - 1998) VHHX (since 1998) "traditional Chinese: 啟德機場" was the world's busiest international airport. The growth of Hong Kong put a strain on the airport's capacity. The airport was designed to handle 24 million passengers per year but in 1996, Kai Tak had already handled 29.5 million passengers, plus 1.56 million tonnes of freight, making it the third busiest airport in the world in terms of passenger traffic, and first in terms of cargo. However extremely busy Kai Tak was located in the city center, the Kowloon City "九龍城" (The city of nine dragons "city surrounded by nine mountains"), around by high density buildings, numerous skyscrapers and rugged mountains reaching an altitude of 2000 ft. with single narrow runway close to taxiway jutting out into Victoria Harbour, and further less than 10 Km is Hong Kong Island, another densely populated area with hills up to 2100 ft., the airport was infamously difficult to land at. However, due to the same reason, only experience pilots were chosen for the challenging approach and air crash incidents rarely occur.
The low altitude manoeuvre was so spectacular that crowded streets of people, multi-storey buildings, vehicles and pavements can easily be "touch", you can hear "WOW" or "My God" from passengers when they see the flickering of televisions even children say "Hi" to them through apartment windows as their aircraft approached the airport's landing strip. In this video, you can found the most extremely landing, but these happened several hundred times per day, and was just the real daily life of Hong Kong people. タグ:hongkongkaitakairportvhhh 投稿日: November 24, 2007, 8:02 pm 閲覧数: 243249 投票: 4.90(５点満点) 251 人の平均
kai tak 98
8:13
An 8 min rollercoaster ride through Hong Kong's (in)famous Kai Tak Runway 13 approach.
Now closed, Kai Tak was the most challenging airport approach of its time. Pilots made a last minute sharp right turn at under 700 feet above the Kowloon high rise apartments to line up with the runway. I landed there once in real life and the apartments were so close I could read the logos on t-shirts hanging out to dry and see what people were watching on telly.
Often accidents occurred as Hong Kong's variable weather played a large part.
The airport was closed on July 5, 1998 due to the fact it had outgrown it's capacity, safety concerns, noise and pollution. But deep down, the airport was loved by all in the "Fragrant City" and was the beating heart of Hong Kong.
Here now it is faithfully recreated in Flight Simulator 2004. Seen are some of the aircraft you might have seen over Kowloon during it's time - Enjoy! タグ:fs9fsxfs2004kaitakhong 投稿日: February 5, 2007, 12:22 am 閲覧数: 136005 投票: 4.80(５点満点) 283 人の平均
kai tak reloaded
5:57
The biggest rush in FS is back! We're returning to Kai Tak in the much anticipated 9Dragons scenery for FS2004.
I was kindly asked to join the beta team and make a video similar to my Kai Tak 98 film a couple of years back. So I have great pleasure in presenting Kai Tak: Reloaded.
Thanks to Marcus Thompson (Clutch Cargo) for asking me to be involved and for producing a fantastic scenery.
Strap yourselves in and let's go.
Music: Little River by Sash.

cockpit view ランドing hong kong kai tak in rain igs approach
3:15
As requested. A shorter version of the approach into Kai Tak without the music. Again, the lead in lights are barely visible through the rain as the video starts and then we get a great view of the checkerboard through to touchdown. This approach is in the rain. The other video is a little clearer but still grey out. タグ:boeing747landingplaneairplaneaeroplane 投稿日: March 17, 2008, 11:35 am 閲覧数: 61724 投票: 4.80(５点満点) 100 人の平均

crazy ランドing at kai tak!

An amazingly risky landing made by a Korean Air 747 at Hong Kong's defunct Kai Tak International. If you look closely you can see that they actually touch down before the threshold. タグ:koreanairkaitak747landing 投稿日: March 30, 2006, 1:45 pm 閲覧数: 667927 投票: 4.60(５点満点) 205 人の平均

This is a compilation of my short snippet videos short from Kowloon city under the approach path to Hong Kong's Kai Tak airport in 1998. They were uploaded individually 2 years ago, but are much easier to watch this way. タグ:vhhhhongkongkaitakkowloon 投稿日: March 23, 2008, 3:07 am 閲覧数: 1379629 投票: 4.50(５点満点) 3171 人の平均
