Not sure if this is the right place for this question , however , would any of the old hands here know anything about rwy 31 takeoffs at Kai Tak ?
This is what Wikipedia says on rwy 31 :
Runway 31 departure
When lined up for takeoff on runway 31, Lion Rock and Mt. Parker would be right in front of the aircraft. The aircraft had to make a sharp 65-degree left turn soon after takeoff to avoid the hills (a reverse of what landing traffic would do on Runway 13).
Does anyone know of a video clip or photos somewhere on a rwy 31 takeoff - surely must have been spectacular .
