This guy is a real character. Very entertaining
Amazing
Imagine posting this with hardcoded subs calling Kai Tak "quite dark"
I am jealous...and I am proud to say it.
cool🎉
That's good somebody that has flown A F18 or A Raptor or Last but Best A130 Gunship👌👌👌
Nice Capt!
I've been in the jump seat in the good old days into Kai tak night landing in L10 -11 and 707. I even flew on the Convair 880.
Well done!! You have a nice personality and make it fun. I’ve always wanted be a pilot but became a doctor hahaha. Keep up the great work!!
How does he know when to start his turn? Does he look out the side of the window and note when he’s passing a particular building, or?
Was in HK in 1986. We were literally flying between apartment buildings.
That is a sweet simulator
LOL thats like a million dollar sim!!
Could be good to install sensors on the runway for fully automatic landing in bad circumstances.
That was a flight simulator!
Funny guy.
Eso es un simulador, ahí aterriza cualquiera.
Zero visibility? That's legal?
It’s a simulator landing !
131 + 5 = 136 😐
Is this simulator or actual flight? so realistic... :D
There's no one in the left hand seat, and Kai Tak doesn't exist anymore 😉
I used to hold my breath landing here, always thought the runway would run out and we'd end up in the harbour! Absolute iconic airport in its simplicity and yet ingenious solutions to overcome the many issues flying in/out. Never, ever one boring moment at Kai Tak!
The infamous « Hong Kong quite dark airport » 😂
I remember waving to a woman who was hanging out her washing on top of one of the buildings and she waved back. It’s hard to explain just how close she really got to buildings and people. Exhilarating for the pilot but scary as well
Having lived near the hills surrounding Kai -Tak Airport, it is a really daunting area. I was there in the 50s. There weren't the electronics we have today. The old Pan Am pilots used to claim. It was best to approach HK, having had a good glug of alcohol?!!😅
I can never get enough of Kai Tak. Never flown into it, but it must have been a real experience to sit in the jump seat; especially on a windy day in poor weather. You pilots make it look so easy, but reality is not a simulator. The thought that you have hundreds of people in the cabin, all waiting to see their loved ones. All trusting your piloting skils. Awesome. Fly safe, guys.
One thing in particular must not be forgotten: All the Intercontinental flights were flown by pilots, some of whom had 12 hours of flight time, and they were correspondingly tired from the flight. And at the end such a challenge (the crosswind from the sea!).
Coolest Captain and Landing on TH-cam.
Landing at Hong kong in 1989 was my most memorable landing ever. So close to the buildings, just amazing.
Never flown to Kai Tak. What do I miss: there’s a visual part, but above the minimum. Does that mean that you need visual reference to the “check board” only to guide you to the minimum?
@@stephanhansen5931IGS was used back in the day, to guide the plane to the checkerboard.
Shouldn't be 2 pilots for landing and take off? If it is real, why did you stop in the middle of the run way? It is a simulator right?
My wife bought me a session on a 737 simulator for my birthday and I chose Kai Tak to land at. Never done it before but it was a very realistic and sweaty experience. I managed to get it down by "following the rabbits" and a lot of help from a qualified real instructor in right-hand seat.
I did it in a A320 sim at Coventry Airport. Amazing although the instructor told me I might have taken a few tiles and aerials off some buildings. 😂
There's a A320 sim at Coventry Airport, is there? I live about 90 mins from there, wonder if its still there? When did you have your go Pickle?
@@johnh10000 Yes, along with a 737 and a static 747. I think it's called the Midlands simulation centre. Alongside Coventry airfield.
This pilot really enjoys his job 😂
At 1:00 you see ICC on the right but that building did not exist in the 90s, so that broke the immersion.
Well done, Captain. Very experienced pilot.
It was good to see the famous HK checkerboard approach done Carlito's Way, with a bit of Elvis.
"Thank you very much."
Incredible he makes it look so easy but it's not .. hats off to those pilots
I would LOVE to own a simulator like this. I would probably "live" in the thing day and night!!! LOL!!! 😂😁

Did the UFly Simulator last year for my birthday. It was pretty awesome to actually get a feel of flying the actual aircraft. The only thing is that if you're used to MSFS, the graphic fidelity is not the best but definitely overall an awesome experience and Captain Claudio made it super pleasurable. Looking forward to going back again!
Great approach!
The subtitles are funny sometimes ))
"Vof speed"
"Runway site"
"Throttle is twiddle"
Haha yea, the caption generator is a little wonky, especially when it tries to understand some of our instructors accents!
@@uflysimulatorinc "Quite Dark"
anyone know captain's name? nice and funny guy
It's Cláudio Teixeira
This video didn't do justice. I lived outside the Kowloon wall city in one of those 4-story building less than one mile from the airport in 1963. A cockpit view would have shown the Pan AM 747 headed straight to the north Flag mountain and turned right 90 degree at the checkerboard time 2.17, and crabbing down onto the runway.
Years later I was working as an ME in Being Everett factory on 747-8, 777, 787.
Fire the subtitle generator… “quite dark” IS NOT the name of the airport! It’s Kai Tak! Also, it’s not “of” speed, it’s Vref.” Also, auto-brake is not “auto-break!”
Thank you Captain for sharing with us. I used to fly to Hong Kong as a steward with British Airways, happy memories. I believe I once sat on the flight deck for landing, what an experience !
Can i come visit, im 32 year flight attendant just retired.. miss flying.. but it was a good ride!
Arrived at Hong Kong in the late 1990's on the upper deck of a 747-400 (Cathay Pacific). Had never been there before and did not know about the checkerboard landing. Pretty shocked when I looked out the window and saw building right outside and laundry hanging on apartment patios. Also a little surprised when we touched down and all I saw outside was water.
What is the morsecode ‘kilo Lima’ in the background for (-.- .-..) is that the airport designator?
So much detail, well explained with passion. Made me feel like I was there. Thank you so much
Incorrect, Paro in Bhutan is the most difficult airport to approach. Look it up, ICAO is VQPR.
Brilliant commentary 👍
I loved to fly this airport my self when I had my flightsim going on. Have`nt been used it since 2012 or so now. Iw kept all the gear though
Great simulator & pilot
As great as the turn way, why not just make a larger circle & fly straight into the runaway instead of turning?
Always wanted to be a commercial pilot for as long as I can remember, but ended up working at Greggs.
Real Cool, l liked his explanation of his procedure for landing etc Real Cool guy
When I saw one pilot I said "Huh?"...then "Oh, simulator."
Been there done that in a DC8 .Fun airport back in the day
That was fun !🤓thank you
I fly 777's too! he he! I love your sim! Man I miss that airport in 747's!
Your subtitles are wrong. He says it is "Kai Tak" in Hong Kong, not quite dark lol
Much respect for pilots i wanted to ssy high flyers but not now with cannabis going around
Beautiful demo. It will be even better if your software 3D scenery downgraded to before year of 1998 (Before the decommission of the Kai Tak Airport on 1998JUL06). I don't think that International Commerce Centre (ICC) exist at that time. 🤣
Beautiful landing! But how come you’re in the right seat?
Cannot count the time's I've had simulator difficulty landing on this former runway.
Excellent landing indeed~
times with an apostrophe???? wow. M0ron
what an insane airport -- no big surprise it's decommissioned lol
Why, as captain, are you flying right seat in the simulator?
😂👍‼️
Uncomfortably close to those buildings...
Err, NOT an actual landing!…..simulator
Where is the captain? Locked in the men's room trying to get in?
Awesome vid. It shows the mindset of these pilots...really challenging, but one of their favorites lol.
why you sitting in the right seat ? no one in the left ? Visuals , was it the best way to show it ?? not bad anyway , good way to see how it was done .thanks
This was done in a simulator
Incorrect, Paro in Bhutan is the most difficult airport to approach. Look it up, ICAO is VQPR.
Lukla not so easy at well...
This was not a real landing, right?
Virtual.
Amazing. Nice vídeo. Thanks a lot.
Yes sir, thats very freakin cool.
What happens if you do a simulator like this and just crash into all the buildings?? Do you get in trouble? I like flying simulators but I always end up wanting to crash haha
@fbi
Is this simulator in your house?
Nicely done.
That was sooooo cool!!
Where's his Captain's HAT!?
He is definitely not a real 777 pilot.
He would be a great instructor
The 'Heart Attack" approach???
where I download this game ?
That is an amazing simulator.
Yeah I don't know if I want to be close enough in a plane where I can tell what people are eating for dinner. Nice landing though.
Like this man.... he funny
👍👌🤙💪😎🦫💰🇺🇸💪👏🇺🇸
Wow, very foggy in the CGI simulation of the airport today............
This video hit the algorithm. Keep it up and your view count will skyrocket
This was amazing Capt. Shoutout from Brooklyn NYC
I love this guy!!!!
Great guy right there!
Miss kai tak
I remember being able to see people sat eating their evening meal in their living room as we approached the runway.
Master pilot.
With RNAV it's not so bad. Without very challenging. Thanks for sharing, I always wondered what that approach looked like.
fantastic, thanks for sharing, love the humor....I caught the "KL" in morse code in the background (copied code for 4 years in the air force)......be fun to try a 737 in the sim
Impressive..
Why no ILS?
Brilliant. So cool it reassures you as a passenger. Great to watch and listen to
