My parents flew out of Kia Tak many years ago. It is a great dinner story!

No way could I live someplace where you could look out the window and wave at the pilot of an airliner as he goes by.

The relatively new HKG airport Chek Lap Kok is so boring compared to the old one.

Great cargo facilities though which have made things much easier for our industry.

Flew there in 77 and can honestly say it went without incident (probably because I was drunk)
