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.

Nov 16, 2008 - maybe the companies have also their parts of responsabilities when they require their pilots to shorten their approaches regarding to the high fuel prices

Nov 16, 2008 - maybe the consumers have also the parts of responsabilities when they are not willing to pay higher ticket price even when the fuel price increases

Nov 17, 2008 - Was a great landing (saved by the pilot); not really dangerous...did you see how the pilot moved the plane "around the vertical axis?" Nice job. Also used the landing gear to "pivot" the plane to the left to line up with the center line.
