This week's post comes in the form of a video.

A few days ago I was flying around in Microsoft Flight Simulator X, practicing my landings at the old Hong Kong International Airport, commonly referred to as Kai Tak Airport. Back in its day it had a very unique approach fo

r runway 13 in which the aircraft would have to make a very sharp right turn to line up with the runway. At the point of the turn the aircraft would be only two nautical miles (3.7 km) away from the runway at an altitude of less than 1,000 ft! This is my attempt at flying that approach. Enjoy!
