Flight notes

After exploring Kai Tak and Hong Kong from the air, it was time to continue the journey.

The weather, however, had other plans. Dark storm clouds were beginning to build around the area, so rather than staying at Kai Tak, I decided to move the Vision Jet G2 to Hong Kong International Airport while the weather still allowed us to make the short flight.

We departed Kai Tak and crossed over Hong Kong toward VHHH, watching the weather develop around us as we made our way to the new airport.

Relocated ahead of incoming storm from Kai Tak Airport (VHHX) to Hong Kong International Airport (VHHH).
