Yep, that runway 13 Checkerboard Turn approach would get my heart rate up every time.I did -- many times. I also flew our last flight into Kai Tak before it closed. Shoot an instrument approach to an apartment building. At less than 500 ft above ground make a 50-degree right-hand turn, roll out and land. While descending at 800 feet per minute. And moving at 180 mph. With a left crosswind. In an airplane that weighed over 600,000 lbs. Fun when the weather was nice though.
