By Capt Elmo Jayawardena[email protected]A few months ago, I was in Hong Kong, visiting a well-known charity organisation called Crossroads. When the skies were friendly, it was a thrill to land at Kai Tak. Every time a pilot landed in Hong Kong in the olden days, there was that gleam in the eye. Dark grey clouds hung low, covering the mountains and the Chequered Board was hardly visible. I could not let this young man go and run through a flying career having never landed in Kai Tak.
