Hong Kong Kai Tak and FMC SID/STAR

Featured Replies

Hi mates,

I thought it might be useful to pass this info that I discovered recently.

You probably know that Hong Kong Kai Tak (VHHX) was closed in 1998 but thanks to FlyTampa, we have a nice recreation of that airport in P3Dv4.

Now to fly with an airliner into VHHX, you need the appropriate SID/STAR loaded in a flight planner (eg. PFPX), and also in the FMC of your favorite airliner.

Until a date I ignore, maybe a couple of years ago, it was necessary to edit manually files, or use installers or tweaks provided by https://www.vapap.com/kai-tak-airport

Now it is even more simple and straightforward: the VHHX SID/STAR comes default with the Navigraph AIRAC. Thanks to Navigraph for that!

Enjoy approach to the challenging IGS RW13!

Great to hear.  Kai Tak will always be one of my favorite airports.  We created an add-on for it years for FS2004 (9Dragons Kai Tak for all those old timers out there).  FlyTampa did a marvelous with it.
