  1. 1. Hong Kong's modern airport reminds me of the old Kai-Tak airport, which was one of the scariest to get into and out of. There was (maybe still is) a Checkerboard Hill that pilots watched for on approach. https://youtu.be/YdVupou9ZZA?si=r_uF02Ie8aDGmUug 2. The A380 has thrust reversers, which help slow the plane after touchdown, only on its 2 inboard engines # 2 and 3. That's all it needs, and the 2 outer engines 1 and 4 often overhang the runway and might ingest foreign objects that could damage the engines. 3. The camel traffic just past 10:00 reminds me of a nickname for the long-ago British Overseas Airways Corporation: Better On A Camel. BOAC merged with British European Airways (Back Every Afternoon) in 1974 to form present-day British Airways (Bloody Awful). 4. IDKWYGNBIKIBTWY.

  2. I've come to feel that when Mike says he doesn't know where he's going next, he actually has an idea but doesn't want to give anything away.
