Hello 2008. I have been updating my videos to deal with the requests I get from you. There are going to be several edits of each video. When I have the footage, I will make full length videos and a short one of just the landing.

The vast majority of my videos were taken in Hong Kong at Kai Tak airport prior to it being closed down in 1998. The new airport, Chek Lap Kok, is the current Hong Kong airport. The ICAO identifier is VHHH.

The video is strictly amateur and any unrelated noise is just that. Some videos may have audio missing or replaced depending on quality or recording on that day.

I have enabled comments.

I will also be uploading versions of the videos with music, for those of us who like the music. There will be a little cleaning up of some of the other videos too and, with any luck, some new videos...

Hong Kong's famous checkerboard viewed from Kowloon Mall
Sharks were great. Still flying. Tks! (4 weeks ago)

Simplified. The approach used to fly down a modified electronic approach to a point in the air and then the pilots would use this checkerboard on the side of the hill to help navigate the rest of the way to the airport. (4 weeks ago)

Yes. I have a whole set of videos filmed from the checkerboard on YouTube. It was a great vantage point. (1 month ago)

Before you all get wrapped around an axle. This is just a historical video shot for the checkerboard used on the approach to the old Hong Kong airport. It's for reference in a wiki article on the airport. (1 month ago)

great collection of videos of kai tek aircraft flights. retired u.p.s. airline pilot. i flew i don't know how many flights in and out of kai tek. was a great challenge and a hell of a lot of fun. license to buz. wish i had made some videos for myself. miss my job so very much. but, there were days at that airport that were really quite sporting.. say an approach to 13 with about a 20+ knot wind from around 200 degrees or more. sporting.
thanks for the videos. have brought back great memories.

News, Bank of Italy formed in California USA in about 1907 and later in 1928 or so change its name to what we know today as Bank of America and has over taken the US and now all of Europe, Asia, Middle East, and the Americas, will fall not to Hitler's army but with Capitalist greed. A war from within your Nations, YOU ARE owned by Bank of America the 5th biggest bank in the world desiring to be #1, by over taken China Central Bank. What Hitler did with armies they will do with covert black ops sponsorship in sports world wide as Rome did under Caesar . Occupying every Country through covert financial institutions, mingled covert investments, ATM's, Government formed partnerships. Watch my videos see what is to come, fear Corporation ran Governments of GREED. Ernie "WE THE PEOPLE"
