Always a pleasure seeing Kai Tak, a little sad to see the destroyed state of the airport now. Nice Shine affect and beautiful scenery behind makes it a great shot. To the comment about it being a -451, I believe this 747 is actually leased to UA, not owned.

Wouldn't it be a 747-422, since it was built for United?

Just splitting hairs here. Awesome shot!

If you blurr you vision a little, it almost looks like the Completely green Cathay livery...I'm bored.

A visitor from Norway posted Sat January 26, 2008:
This giant seems heavier than others in same class, probably because of the color. well caught though.

A visitor from Ireland posted Fri January 18, 2008:
