Kai Tak runway 13 was with the prevailing winds 90 percent of the time.
nothing to do with Communist China, but rather a big bellybutton mountain. That film looks like it's taken from the checkerboard, on said mountain. The ils is on said checkerboard, and the approach is at an angle 45 degrees off of 13. Aircraft fly a final to the checkerboard, then a hard right and touchdown, hence the nickname "Kai Tak heart attack". Throw in some crosswinds (and the 747 doesn't put a wing down first, it just slides all tires in at the crab angle), and it gets really festive. There's some better video and stillshots out there of podstrikes, blown approaches, aircraft touching down off the runway, all kinds of good stuff.
