  Munich did that too in 1992. Never seen that many trucks before.

  Landing in Kai Tak was immense fun (probably not if flying scares you shitless). If the plane would have been a little slower you could have checked out what's on TV in the living rooms of the high rises during touch-down. Crazy dangerous is a bit of an exaggeration[1]. That said: Due to the layout (the runway running directly into the harbour) and it's location in the middle of the city it was a challenging airport for pilots to operate. Additional specific training was required for pilots to take off and land in Kai Tak.
