Whipped Cream Difficulties

I haven’t put up any RoadRich bait recently, so today is his day.

“The Story Of Hong Kong’s Kai Tak Airport”.

I’m fairly sure this is a view from the ground of a 747 on final to Kai Tak.

And here’s a cockpit view of the Kai Tak approach.

Question for anyone who has the new Microsoft Flight Simulator: can you set up an approach and fly in to the virtual Kai Tak?

“Captain Joe” explains V1, Vr, and V2. If you watch movies (well, if you watch the kind of movies we watch) you’ll hear the pilots calling out those speeds. But what exactly are they?

“Crawl through a B-29 Superfortress IN FLIGHT!”

What is it like to punch out of an F-15 at 600 knots?

Spoiler: not fun.
