It amazes me how some pilots will persist with a dangerous approach rather than going around. I hope this pilot was dealt with appropriately by his airline.

Posted by Nicki Mks on March 10, 2003

This isn't funny for the people in the plane, but it's a great picture.

Niki, I was just in the right place at the right time..... AGAIN !!

There was just one runway at Kai Tak and they named it Runway 13. Is that bad fung shui or what?

Posted by Daryl Chapman - The Hong Kong Spotters on May 9, 2003

Ali, dont think they thought about that when they built the runway!

Posted by Dale Coleman on August 17, 2003

On of the most flooky shots I've ever seen I think! Superb pic Daryl.

Posted by 9M-BBB on August 25, 2003

Somehow I don't think number 13 is a bad number for the Chinese.

Posted by Pilot to be Ryan on September 15, 2003

Even I could do better and im 15, with no training! Done good to recover though (if he did)

Posted by Michael Chow on December 17, 2003

i think Kai tak has got the worst runway ever to land... there are so many accident happening there. The cross wind is just terrible. But that airports makes such a good photos.

Posted by Trevor Slack- The Hong Kong Spotters on August 13, 2004

Great shot Darlow! =D Michael- hundreds of pilots would have killed to fly that approach to runway 13!!

Posted by STEVE SPEARS on June 29, 2006

Looks like this thing is going to cart wheel or get very wet!! What was the outcome??

Posted by Daryl Chapman - The Hong Kong Spotters on June 29, 2006

Hi Steve, just minor damage to the engine... nothing more.

Posted by Kiet D.H.A on July 13, 2006

There were so many dangerous landings happened at Kai Tak, but the worst one was China Airlines B744 overrun runway 13 and sank into the water, was it right?

Posted by Daryl Chapman - The Hong Kong Spotters on July 14, 2006

The CI 744 was not the worst as everyone lived. The worst I remember was the CAAC Trident that crashed.
