Took off from Hong Kong International the other day.
Getting into our take off position behind this "little" 737!
...


Ascending to the skies.
...

Leaving Hong Kong's airspace.
...

Clearing the mountain range.
...

Approach was a little challenging. Here is what happens when you battle a heavy cross wind and try to put her down at the last minute. The passengers and crew got off safely. The only thing damaged was the pilot's pride!  Grin

Lol, Kai Tak is the name, but sadly it is now closed so its not in the scenery  Cry .

It was the most difficult (and amazing) approach in the world.
