wisemanp 0 Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 Imagine Kai Tak is still open. The Equestrian events of the Olympics are being held in Hong Kong so there are aircraft chartered in to do the flgihts between here and Beijing. A BA 777-300ER (Yes I know it doesn't exist in RW) is one of them, and here it was time to depart to Beijing with today's showjumping over. The 777 powers out on runway 13 However, shortly after takeoff, it was then discovered that one of the passengers was an Olympic athlete who had recently failed a drugs test, so the aircraft was ordered to return to Hong Kong! Here it descends back to 8000ft over CH VOR, entering the usual instrument approach for runway 13 Now established on the IGS, this is taken over the new airport Here you can see the checkerboard that we're aiming for As seen from Kowloon Park, right under the final turn Safely down, here seen rolling out, ready to drop the drugs cheat off! Thanks for looking! Link to post Share on other sites
