old taipei airport

Used to go there often and watch planes land. And there were times when they came right up to the very end!! Remember one time a SQ 747 landed after about 40pct of the runway had been used up and I thought for sure it was going to crash. But luckily at the very last moment it stopped. Almost everyone at TSA (the old Taipei Airport) makes sure to land right as the runway begins, wasting not an inch.

A Transasia A320 had a mishap there:
