HKG Delays Evening of 20 Sep 1010

I've been in the business for a good while, been to HKG a bit. I have never seen the kind of delay that was going on at HKG last night.

My hat is off to the Delivery controllers: bloody well done, keeping your cool with the constant requests for preferential treatment.."..we are running out of hours... our destination has a curfew..."etc.

I was keeping a running fix on who was where and it seemed pretty fair to me.

Again. HKG controllers: nicely handled.:ok:

More delays tonight with a German registered 747-400F sitting on the threshold of 25L resting on its left wing. Looks like the left gear retracted after they lined up! Plenty of delays.

All times are GMT. The time now is 15:15.
