HISTORY

In the 1970s and 80s, Kai Tak had become famous for its Checkerboard Approach, a daring landing path that required pilots to aim straight at a giant red-and-white checkerboard painted on a hillside, then make a sharp right turn just seconds before touchdown.

Despite its challenges, Kai Tak was beloved. It was a gateway to the city’s neon lights, bustling markets, and endless energy. For many travelers, the moment the wheels hit the runway—water spraying from the harbor on both sides—was the moment they truly arrived in Hong Kong.

On July 6, 1998, Kai Tak’s final flight lifted into the night sky, its runway lights dimming for the last time. The airport closed, but its spirit never faded. Today, Kai Tak lives on in memories, photographs, and models like yours—reminders of an era when flying into Hong Kong felt like an adventure written in the sky.
