Spotting in Hong Kong

Recommended Posts

SV, thanks for the coverage of CX744 despite the rainy weather.

Sure a lot of fans on the roof to witness the historical moments. :drinks:

Sad to see the B744 go at CX. Both SQ and CX have now rid themselves of the B747s but CX does not have a VLA class aircraft anymore. Too bad...

Actually I also happened to find out that Air China had also retired their pax B747-4J6s a few days ago. With only one flying domestically. The remaining one will be retired today too.

 

Only difference is that CA has a few of B747-8i to carry on the genes of the almighty B747.

Thanks Chaity. We will surely miss the B747-400s. I am aiming to fly more of QF in the coming years to make sure I get the B747-438ER or any B747-8s out there I can find!

It's been closed on and off lately. Is spotting from the sea still possible?

I thought they had already painted this to the default scheme. This livery reminds me of that low fly-by stunt they did with the 77W at Everett.

You mean this aircraft?

 

That was B-KPF. It was painted in "Asia's World City" special colours until Mar 2014.

 

The current green plane is B-KPB, painted in 'Spirit of Hong Kong'

Some old boat spotting pictures from 2015. It's sad that this iconic spotting location is closed indefinitely for HKG third runway construction.
