I was 17 when my aviation career started at Kai Tak in 1968, VR-HFW from the Aero Club and my instructor was Hal D, a lot of CX gents will remember him. Left hand circuits onto 13 with the checkerboard being base. Years later I was landing on 13 again in 74s and 76s, all good fun!
I'll probably hang up the flying jacket later this year and hope I can arrange my last flight to HKG, even though it will be to Chek Lap Kok ........ it will kind of complete the circle.
