Two versions now of the airport are available for download.
I'm going to load one of the two but first I want to see the jpg's that are in the file folders.
*******************
Hong Kong Kai Tak 1963
File Description:
This is Kai Tak airport as it was in 1963. Kowloon Bay has yet to be filled in, and the runway is only 8405 ft long. Includes mesh files by Holger Sandmann and charts of the era scanned by Chic Eather. Navaids backdated to the early 60's, except the IGS for runway 13 is included although not actually installed until 1974. Curving approach lights will help you find the runway. Chek Lap Kok airport has been removed. The IGS and other approaches created by Jim Vile. The AI aircraft will follow the curved approach to runway 13 in good weather or bad.

*******************************
Hong Kong Kai Tak Airport 1998
File Description:
As most know initiating the ILS/LDA/IGS at certain airports for AI Traffic is not a function at this time when using AFCAD2. If you add a ILS to the runway such as VHHX (13/31) only the user aircraft can use this runway when visibility falls below 3 miles. ATC will no longer use this runway for AI Traffic because FS9 sees it as a visual runway. Additional Scenery Buildings, Jetways and new Terminals (as per older Jeppesen Charts) added. AFCAD also included with the IGS13 approach for the User Aircraft. See the readme.txt for all the details.

Nice find RM 😉
They look really cool 😀
Does this mean that the AI aircraft will be able to fly the IGS approach now?
There is actually a THIRD one out there - OLD KAI TAK - which was across the bay from where the new on was built.
You can read the review with pictures on it posted on our VA BBS.
Post WWII, interesting.

Be sure you read by review on it - it has a MAJOR BUG. Works out well for Seaplane Pilots though.

Is there a verdict yet RM?
😂 I forgot all about it.
I'm sitting here laughing.
...while I'm sitting here for days without food, without sleep, without medication... waiting - waiting - waiting...
😂 Just a little longer 🙄
