Kai Tak Airport, Hong Kong's old international airport (until 1998) was infamous for having a very difficult landing approach - Particularly "thanks" to the high-rises that surrounded it and turned it into a real pilot's nightmare...
Flight Experience, an international company that specializes in life-size flight simulators has opened an outlet in Hong Kong, right next to the abandoned airport, where wannabe pilots (and everybody else) can enter a 1-to-1 replica of a Boeing 737 cockpit and try to land safely...
The experience is certainly memorable and so is the price you will have to pay for it (although it is probably worth it).
Flight Experience is located in the bright red building of Megabox, on 38 Wang Chiu Road in Kowloon Bay (next to the actual old airport).
To get there: From MTR Kowloon Bay Station, you can take a cab or even walk.
Open 7 days a week, 11am - 11pm
