Full length version of the Day IGS 13 approach to Kai Tak. Video opens on cockpit instruments showing the approach, some views of the area around Hong Kong, the landing and a long taxi in. This edit is with ambient noise. A short version of just the approach and landing is also available.
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.
I have been working through my archives and finding older video that I had in storage. Here is a condensed arrival and downwind with the approach in real time from the bridge into the airport and touchdown.
Filmed from the checkerboard used for the approach into Kai Tak. Overshoots and then lines it up just to get caught in the wind...again. Unedited. You can hear another enthusiast in the background with a scanner. Airboyd.
IGS Runway 13 in the rain, with long taxi. This was a quick edit. I'll probably replace it later when I get a better edit done. Opens with the lead-in lights barely visible in the rain and then we break out.
Removed soundtrack. This is a landing at the new Hong Kong airport CLK. Yes, it's a bit of a firm landing ;) It's a training flight, and yes, I did flare, just not enough. It was landing #2 or #3 in the plane. Idle reverse because it's so light and the engines are big enough to slow it down.
Sort edited version of the Day IGS 13 approach to Kai Tak. Video contains just the end of the approach and the landing. This edit is with ambient noise. Follow along http://tinyurl.com/5 ctcyw
A full version of just the approach and landing is also available. This is the same video just edited into a shorter piece.
This is a compilation of my short snippet videos shot from the perimeter round (peri track) around the airport 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. Primarily Cathay Pacific planes.
Here is unedited footage I took at the top of the World Trade Center in 1998. Mostly shows the view of New York and that famous flag. Archive footage. It's nothing special video-wise, but it is a view that can no longer be seen.
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.
