GREAT TIMING
Pretty balsy at such a low altitude!
Thanks guys! No idea why this photo wasn't a FA staff pick?
It deserves to be a staff pick. What a great shot!
Holy crap!
WOW! Stunning shot!
Haha Tom I was thinking EXACTLY the same thing!!
This gives a new meaning to the tower saying "early right turnout approved". Great shot!
Looks like a 74 landing at Kai Tak...craziest airport in the world...should say was.
For a second i thought this was some Boeing test pilot trying to be Tex Johnston!
You bought it new. At least get it of the lot :-)
Now I know why my last freight shipment from Europe was crushed.
Great photo!
Impressive! Well captured!
"Honey, you missed the turn!!! You were supposed to turn left just after the mountain...."
quite a turn
Great shot! I can't believe this photo was not featured as a staff pick when currently there are 135 votes!
I would have banked on this being a staff pick too.

damn!
I was fortunate enough to see this that day, there was something going on with the museums and I was down at the windsock. Sort of scared me as I had no idea why it was rolling so hard!
Sure makes a GREAT pic!!
OMG
It's bank angle time!
I cannot believe I was there and witnessed this. No camera, I honestly wasn't sure what was about to happen, and was considering running! I am glad someone else caught it!
Completely safe turn when proper speed is maintained. Very nice photograph.
Awesome picture
