Boeing 747 Cockpit Video landing Hong Kong Kai Tak Rain IGS (1998)

As requested. A shorter version of the approach into Kai Tak without the music. Again, the lead in lights are barely visible through the rain as the video starts and then we get a great view of the checkerboard through to touchdown. This approach is in the rain. The other video is a little clearer but still grey out.

kai tak. soooo EPIC!

@killer8452 I think it's because whoever is filming has their camera zoomed in quite a bit, which reduces the sensation of speed. Everything looks a bit slower.
-
@killer8452 The wind may have kicked up and with the flaps down it probably gave the illusion of a really slow landing. That's what wind does to you
-
@killer8452 It is not really slow. The size of the lines on the runway provides the illusion that its moving slow. That's my guess at least.
-
Damn! It looks as if the plane turned into a helicopter at the end. It's almost like it was hovering above the runway for a few seconds.
-
@killer8452 Sorry, I can't tell you either. I was just wondering the same thing...
-
why does the plane go really slow in the end, is it because of wind?
-
A true view of a different time in aviation. The approach over Kowloon city would have been terrifying for a post 9/11 world.

@ryan1111111555555555 Nearly. Check out my video on my channel, final part of the Frankfurt to Kai Tak whereby I explain what goes on. Do hope you trust my words once you read about my channel.

i really hate whenever the camera zooms on the runway at time of the landing. It looks like the planed landed at 5 mph.

@Javier33085 In case you weren't joking, this video would have been made before Kai Tak closed in 1998.
