Full length version of the Day IGS 13 approach to Kai Tak. Video opens on cockpit instruments showing the approach, some views of the area around Hong Kong, the landing and a long taxi in. This edit is with ambient noise. A short version of just the approach and landing is also available.
Another test using H.264 codec. The video is 2x until the turn to final then normal speed for the approach. The camera was mounted too low to capture the airport properly. The quality looks good but I think I'm dropping frames. I'll work on being able to get air to ground transmissions for future videos. I'll probably need to wait until my next computer to solve the frame drop though.
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.
Filmed from the checkerboard used for the approach into Kai Tak. Overshoots and then lines it up just to get caught in the wind...again. Unedited. You can hear another enthusiast in the background with a scanner. Airboyd.
IGS Runway 13 in the rain, with long taxi. Opens with the lead-in lights barely visible in the rain and then we break out. I replaced the audio to comply with YouTube policy.
This is an unedited view of a Boeing 747 landing at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) near dusk. In regards to the zooming comments, I only zoomed to the cockpit window, a mere 5 feet from the jumpseat. It is framed top and bottom in the shot. If you have seen my takeoff video, you know you can barely see anything outside if you do not. Anyway, the landing speed is well over 120 knots.
