This is Kai Tak Airport in Hong Kong — one of the most dangerous and legendary airports in the world. Pilots had to make a sharp 47° turn just seconds before landing, skimming over rooftops so close you could almost wave at the passengers. The runway ended right at the water, so if you missed, there was no second chance. It was so iconic that aviation fans from around the world came just to watch these jaw-dropping landings.” #edit #kaitai #airport #90s
