香港啓徳空港1989。当時勤めていた会社の慰安旅行で行きました。時間が限られていましたし、三脚も持っていかなかったので、あまりいいカットではありませんが。 It is Hong Kong Kaitak Airport collected in 1989 Time was limited. Moreover, Tripod was not brought. As a result, it is a movie with bad quality.

This video is a perfect representation of how many 747s there were in Asia 20-40 years ago. I took a trip to Bangkok in 99 and it was unbelievable. I think I flew on 6 separate 747s throughout the trip, including the elusive holy grail…the SP. I even got to fly on a little A310 to Phuket. It was such an incredible era for commercial aviation in that part of the world.
i flew into this airport around 35 yrs ago at night, this was my first time on a plane i remember seeing people in there buildings , i have never forgot that experience blew me away

I use to watch the planes take off and land while sitting on the Star Ferry Pier. I was told that every pilot who would fly into Kaita had to do special “drop n land”. Maneuvers.
Hong Kong in the 1980s was a very memorable time. I miss Hong Kong so much that its unique Chinese and Western culture changed in 1997.❤️

I was there from '72-75. I was shocked smells of air when I was first landed. We have to catch car ferry to cross Hong Kong Island. My friend dads company made first under harbor tunnel between Hong Kong to Kowloon. I went funeral of Bruce Lee at Tiger Balm gardens. My school was in a apartment building at Causeway Bay, right front of old Lee Garden Hotel. We lived near San Tin. Kai Tak Airport had Chinese restaurant who serves The Best Shark Fin Soup I ever had.

@@reignman40boozer5 I did some research and I discovered that JAL was one of the launcher airlines to buy a new version launched in the same year. For example, when the 747-100 was released in 1970, JAL already had some orders prior to the launching. In 1971, the situation wasn't different. In that year, Boeing released -200 version and JAL again was an launcher airline. And finally, when the -300 version was released in 1983, JAL only buyed his first model in 1986. About the -400, launched in 1989, JAL buyed in 1990. An intresting fact is that Japan Airlines, during the 2000s, was the largest 747 operator of the world, with 65 units, including all versions. When JAL finally retired his last 747 in March 2011, the position was overtaken by British Airways, with about 40 units, until today.

I will never forget flying into Kai Tak at 17 years old on Gulf Air, my aunt had described the apprach to me a year or so before and it was everything I anticipated. That was May 1988, arrived again in June 1993.
The old Hong Kong airport had those streets and buildings so close to it, it amazes me how anyone could've lived in those buildings. And seeing the old Hong Kong based Cathay Pacific, that airline had many flights from Hong Kong to Los Angeles and San Francisco, and also from Hong Kong to London and major cities in Europe.

Those buildings were part of the Kowloon walled city, and let's just say that they were... _messy_ Living conditions there were very bad, with a high poverty and crime rate. There was also an insane density, and police barely went to check there. The people who live there only did so because they couldn't afford going anywhere else

I remember going to HK in 1990 for our honeymoon and had dinner in Kowloon City in a restaurant that is right under the flight path for planes coming in to land. The door of the restaurant would swing open and then slam shut from the noise and vibration every time an aircraft flew over us coming to land at Kai Tak Airport. After dinner we walked to an area looking straight onto the runway with a wire fence separating the plane spotters and the runway. Nostalgic times! Thanks for the video.

In 1:17 the 747-400 had a slightly different livery to the other 747s in the Cathay Pacific fleet. It is because the plane was leased from Air New Zealand (note its ZK registration instead of the VR that is used by aircraft registered in British Hong Kong).
