  • Could do without the music!!

  • hate the music

  • for me is perfect the music, is the perfect contrast between the stress that can feel one pilot when land in kai tak, and the calm down that you can stay when you hear this music, exelent video and really good music

  • that is one of the best landing ive ever seen espesially in kai tak on a rainy day the runway lights were perfect 2 red 2 white amazing i wish i was that pilot

  • Awesome video! So miss Kai-Tak! Would really rather hear cockpit sound though instead of music.

  • fuck the music so wonderfull really

  • The music is awesome :-)

  • music makes life better

  • its always raining in kong hong.........

  • Let me guess why you muted the video :

    FLAPS.....SINKRATE.....PULL UP... PULL UP.... GEAR.....

  • o my gad

  • I landed at Kai Tak airport in 1982 at the tail end of a typhoon. It was one of the scariest moments of my life. Those pilots were made of the right stuff.

  • WOW so many buildings, I can't breath

  • aint nothing but a g thang baaaby

  • cool vid airboyd i dont care what they say i love the music too.

  • awsome landing for 747!!!!! amazing!!! experts pilots

  • 1:55 for a moment there i thought i was watching GTA IV

  • are there a fisherman sitting on the end of runway? :D

  • it's an IGS approach

  • 747's don't have windshield wipers!!!

  • @joshuamatthews603 So why can you see those here?

  • what the hell is up with such a music with a cockpit landing video?

  • Hey buddy, Nice video. What was the song before the classic?

  • Nice video!!

  • ' Tain encore un singe...

  • Tain mec la musique gâche tout !!!!

  • lol @ retards whining about the music while theres a clip without it in the description

  • I love landing at that airport, too bad is closed now. It was part of the fun in going to Hong Kong.

  • Bastard!

  • bad music :(

  • nice music

  • love the way everyone complains about the music but arent smart enough to read the description. want one without music? read the description!!

  • You know I'll bet the first thought that goes thru a pilot's mind on his or her 1st approach to this airpoart is (Using a Battlestar galatica term here) "HOLY FRAK!!! YOU WANT ME TO LAND IN THE MIDDLE OF THAT?!?!?!?!?!" lol Almost looks like a Carrier approach and landing

  • Nice video nice music. For real sounds do it on FSX. Try the landing with a very "rainy" weather.

  • Great video, but a stringed orchestra on-board during finals?

    If I was the captain, I think I'd rather crash!  lol

  • yeah.. the original sound would be better than hearing some band rip off "youth gone wild" from skid row.

  • Music ruined it for me... Next time include the cabin noises, they're much more tasteful and waay more appropriate.

  • Does every video need a fucking music track?!?!?!

  • wow kinda old video , But Hey ! Nice Landing ! sloww touch down !!! :P and Great Job pilot !!!

  • What a retarded why put you an rockmusic on a chill PLane landing video ?????

  • noooooooo musics noooooooo

  • i dont understand why people puts music in this kind of movies ?

  • I prefer to hear the real sounds in these video than the music.

  • Take a look at the notes or the annotation at the top

  • Ah, ok, thx. I'sorry.

  • @topolinik pilots cookpit song selection, nothing we can do about it.

  • @topolinik lol your slow it shows an annotation at the top of the video

  • @galindo49 ok thx

  • Comment removed

  • With this music a think they gona crash. ^^)

  • del putas como dicen las monjitas...

  • its hard to land at kai tak..hong kong should build new airport away from the city....at the middle sea maybe..

  • lol they already have a new airport? kai tak is closed.

  • Im aircraft maintenance enginner. And ım glad to my jop. becouse it is very serious and enjoyable working...

  • @turnam60 nice , i would love to work in a plane...maby even the army in an ac130 love to take pics of em lol

  • WOW THAT LOOK LIKE A PIER HE LANDED ON.

  • Amazing (and a good choice of music). Is it just me or did the aircraft APPEAR to be motionless even before it touched the runway?!

  • oh snapthis has got tobemy #1 jam right nowhad to get itsent tomy iph0neonfast2cell. com

  • very good video

    if it was HD by default it would be perfect

    but considering it was 1998 it's fine

  • Comment removed

  • SLOWMOTION ^^

    Only Scan and CQC

    TURISMO2012 Level 8

  • wow! slo-mo landing.......! :-)

  • Omg... that music...terrible..especially with these videos.

    Leave it out or change it.

  • I can hear you have a bad choice of aviation music :-)

  • I sure hope you mean the guy who made this video?

    I mean come on, this doesnt fit al all, and we dont hear a single sound from the cockpit.

    What good is it then.

  • Na, I actually mean you :-)

    Well different choices

  • lol. so much pollution.

  • lol. i think it was just rainy.

  • rain != pollution

  • have you ever been to china? its so god damn polluted.

  • i've been a few time in china yet.

    there is no more pollution in china than in the us.

  • im chinese and i go back quite it bit... its BAD there

  • yes your certainly right

    sometimes traffic has to stop cause the smog is so thick its impossible to drive through

    its crazy ness over there

    and they arent stopping soon, its only getting worse

  • In1988 I climbed upto the "chequer board" as seen around 1.20 in this clip. There was a very mad dog behind a barb wire fence! Settled for a vantage point a few meters lower and watched landings as the sun went down over the islands in the distance......pretty cool view. I suffered vertigo like sensations when walking back down the steep narrow steps on the side of concreted hill.....was worth the trip up though!

  • whats the song name?

  • "bring me to life" by evanesence

  • anybody knows if pilots needed a special licence to land at kai tak airport earlier?

  • not a special licence but they needed special training before they were allowed to do it for real

  • yes they definatally do

  • I remember taking off from Kai Tak a couple of times back in 1982. On one flight, we were ascending when the engines seemed to go silent and the plane started to fall. I started white-knuckling the arms of my seat. I don't know why but it was apparently normal for the pilot to ease off power and let the aircraft descent for a few moments. Hong Kong in the early 80's, what a great a time. At the luxurious Chungking Mansions at that!

  • fatal music

  • will leave this vid unrated. due to that silly b*tch destroying my ears. eughhhh

  • See description to the right for link to the same video without music...

  • do u have perfect vision

  • @baseh9 you shouldve muted it. smart a**

  • Weren't they told to "turn electronic devices off" for landing?

  • Nice :D best approach of the world!!! too bad its gone now:(

  • gee...Im in the minority...I love the song. Evanescence

  • This song with this vid.? doens't work bro, no offense.... unless both pilots are gay...

  • i agree..my dad just yelled at me for the fucking volume of this song being too loud...fucking amy lee at 1 am....dumb shit.

  • great landing from the pilot..

  • aaaargh, the second video i've seen today with this horrid song

  • great video, crap music . leave the original audio !!!!

  • thank you..

  • kai tak has horrible approach.

  • Despite the low altitude clouds and Kai Tak which is notorious for crosswinds, from up here there is no indication of a crosswind landing.

  • the song is from evanescence

  • MUTE

  • what is song

  • Very offensive.. Just dont answer if you're that pissed.

  • im sorry what song is this?

  • Its called "Bring me to life"

    A song by a talentless band that is made to sound good through advanced computer programs.

  • wow, advance computer programs? that's interesting, thanks!

  • And the band Behemoth is so much better!/sarcasm

  • Your sarcasm has failed :)

    Research how well respected the band Behemoth is.

    You fail to see how my comment simply points out how a great video is ruined by garbage music.

    ( i don't merely call it garbage based on my opinion, I also do so because it is fake. )

  • heyhey co pilot

  • gdzie ich rodzice byli ja sie pytam no gdzie ?!

  • Great video Nicw music fantastic landing . thank you for the great video

  • Hi there, I am a newly qualified pilot for B.A and I am actually writing this onboard a 747. I cheated the test and this is my first flight. I am about 20 nautical miles from the new hong kong airport and the little screen says that I'm 8,500 feet - could someone please tell me how to land this thing! Should I just push the wheel thingy down, then pull up at the last second? should I reduce thrust? Thanks!

  • arent u just a kid that is dreaming .... if u were smarter u will know that u must reverse thrust ,the trim - set for landing ,use ur brain and the speedbrakes ....

  • LOL! dude, if you dont know that. your just bullshiting, YOur not in a fucking plane!

  • 1) Look for a thing called "Parachute" it usually looks like a duffel-bag, but opens like an umbrella, which you dangle from.

    2) Don't let the passengers see you with it, otherwise they'll know you're bailing out on them, and they wont let you make that move.

    Good Luck.

    Ps. Nice landing at HK old. Great soundtrack.

    Carry On.

  • no youre not

  • mmm.... nice pussy.... CAT CAT! oh wait wrong video....

  • Nice video Nice music Nice Landing Nice Pilots Nice... Nice ...

  • music sucks..

  • yes, yes it does

  • is that airport open 2 GA ??

  • This one isn't, I believe today's Hong Kong airport is Chep Lap Kok

  • Why the music? good video though

  • They should never have closed that airport.

  • ..when i watch some of the videos i think the same thing, cos, its almost like losing the pilots able to make a perfect 'Kai Tak' landing (which i think are some of the coolest landings, by the way, especially in crosswind conditions). but then again, it was one of the most dangerous airports in the world...and in aviation, safety comes first...its a pity to not have it anymore, though...

  • Why was it one of the most dangerous?

  • there are strong sidewinds ,everytime

  • The airport closed ?

  • Yes, closed. If you are a pilot, don't try to dump it there. You need Chep Lap Kok - and a map probably.

  • bloody fantastic shame about the music

  • he put a link in to watch it with no music

  • Damn I want to hear the cockpit sounds.

  • Amazing landing !

  • Nice Video Man

  • great video!

  • amazing land

  • AMAZING LAND... It must had been one of the toughest airport to land... You almost don't have time to straighten up the airplane...

    Congratulation for all pilots who could land in that airport!

  • yer i was the hardest only senior Captains and first officers flew for most airlines as far as i know

  • Is that a normal flight path? They are turning right close to the threshold of the runway.

  • This is Hong Kong's old airport, Kai Tak. This is a normal flight path, crews had to be specially trained and certified before they are able to serve flights there

  • Amazing.

  • great band, amazing video

  • such a bad band...

    like, could you sound any more like linkin park? its been done...

    sorry, but popular music has a tendency to piss me off..

  • i agree with you...

    i initially thought it was linkin park featuring a female singer hahah.

  • They made flying look easy

  • Madonna! atterra alla fine della virata? Pazzesco, Io queste cose le faccio con la bicicletta!!

  • nn hai mai visto uno di questi video?

    cercane altri, sono fantastici

  • ill

  • dont know to much about flyin a plane. is it pretty easy?

  • Uuh. how 'bout no? It's the hardest thing to controll.. (except for your girlfriend) ;-)

  • No she isn't.

  • My girlfriend inst really a guy online pretending to e a chick!

  • im not

  • im not

  • well, when its on autopilot its pretty easy, 36kt crosswind lands at Kai Tak are pretty hard, I suggest you buy a flight simulator like FSX, then buy the PMDG 747-400, that'll be about as real as it gets if you don't have a pilots license ;)

  • It gets more difficult with increased mass of the plane. For instance, a small plane is much easier to fly than a huge jet airliner like in the video. Greater mass implies greater shifts of momentum. Some people think the controls and gauges are complex, but in reality, there are no more controls in an airliner's cockpit than controls in most video games.

  • Evanescense = cockpit music?

  • hehe

  • Yea... me too about the music, otherwise great vid

  • yo, no bullshit, but ive been in a cockpit during a take off and landing in a C-130 when i was on my orientation flight with my unit. it was at the 166thAir Lift Wing at ANG base at Delaware. that was an awesome xperience.

  • The legendarry approach !

  • Im SO FUCKING TIRED of hearing videos with the Evansense song!

  • yeah man... im tired too

  • Comment removed

  • yes the coconoidian mastersphincter is wrong also

  • I'm gonna ask ya something? are you a pilot? :)

  • well i have read a lot about flying and i also fly at FS9/X at IVAO check some vids about it:P its not that i am such a good pilot its more that people dont talk about thing they dont know because this one is real and i know that:P so thats what i wanted to tell

    tnx for reaction bye bye

  • this video ist fake, have you ever flew the kai tak approch?

    how can you measure the height of the landing gear?? do you see the secundairy flight display?? 4 engines and it isnt a airbus according to the cockpit. (it is a 747) ever heard about a 2nd flight officer?? kai tak is closed for over 10 years thats before 9-11 so everything was aloud then. please first think before you say this, airboyd tnx for sharing without this we could not see it as it really is tnx tnx tnx

  • Sorry Arj, didn't mean to give you a negative. Your 100% right.

  • haha well oke its just shit the people are talking about fakeness :P and i dont like that tnx for the reply

    bye bye

  • 1 star for telling us this is a 747 cockpit video.

  • why would he fake a video. i swear people like you piss me off cuz everthing on youtube is fake to you.

  • you don't know shit about planes ... go learn faggot
