To arrive at their next destination, Argentina’s Antarctica base in Jubany, the pilots had to fly past Cape Horn and across the Drake Passage. Smith described this portion of the journey as “480 miles of the most treacherous weather in the world”. On January 17, after several days of preparation and weather delays, the pilots flew the R44 to within 5 nautical miles of the South Pole. They waited for weather conditions to improve to get approval to land at the South Pole. “Everything in the interior is white, lifeless, and too harsh for (Above) Smith and Brooks enjoy first trip to South Pole.

RHC is also using high technology laser cutting and water jet cutting machines for both tooling and production. These machines cut continuously without switching cutting tools and can easily manufacture prototype parts without the need to create new tooling. This allows engineering to incorporate product improvements more rapidly into production. With the addition of the new machines and in-house processes, Wayne Walden, VP of Manufacturing, “expects to be more efficient and able to increase production.” Custom built to RHC specifications, the aluminum heat treating furnace will allow RHC more control over part production.

A flight down the harbour at 500 feet, way beneath the tops of the skyscrapers, is spectacular. The club is blessed with highly skilled and experienced staff. CFI Captain SK Gupta has 51 years flying under his belt, including four wars. He flew for the Indian, the Iraqi (“before Saddam”), and the Singaporean Air Forces and for Singapore Airlines (SIA). He set up SIA’s first training college and went on to train Malaysian cadets and RAAF pilots in Australia. His vast experience is evident throughout the club. Since his arrival, he has implemented several initiatives including training courses. He organises three ground school courses a year to bring students up to their PPL level. The syllabus is similar to that of the UK CAA, as is the RT. He says: “I love to share my passion for flying with students. The greatest reward and satisfaction comes from helping students coming up through the ranks.” Helicopter pilots benefit from DCFI(H) Captain John Li, a retired accountant and passionate aviator, who is also regional vice chairman of GAPAN.

  • Submission Received from Hong Kong Aviation Club on 8 November 2006
    CB(1)252/06-07(06) Written Representation in Response to Kai Tak Planning Review Public Consultation Digest (3) in Respect of the Site of Hong Kong Aviation Club in Kai Tak 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 This written representation is submitted on behalf of the Hong Kong Aviation Club (HKAC) in response to the Public Consultation Digest (3) of Stage 3 Public Participation of the Kai Tak Planning Review in respect of its site in Kai Tak. 1.2 In the Public Consultation Digest (3), the site of the Hong Kong Aviation Club at Kai Tak is designated as an “Institution or Community” (“IC”) site for sport facility purposes in the draft Preliminary Outline Development Plan (PODP). 1.3 However, the site designated for “Institution or Community” use is much smaller than the site currently used by the HKAC. Retention of the whole current site of 1.03 hectare is of extreme importance to the Club’s development of aviation education and promotion of aviation culture in Hong Kong. 1.4 The Public Consultation Digest also proposed an at-grade cross-boundary heliport site at the south-western tip of the runway to serve cross-boundary travellers. As the existing HKAC’s helicopter operation base has to be relocated with the future development of the Kai Tak area, HKAC would like to express its interest in sharing the use of the future heliport site at the tip of the runway. 1.5 This written submission is therefore prepared to provide information on the operation of the HKAC and justifications for the retention of the whole site for the HKAC.

While he was in the Central Forecasting Office, the Chief Executive watched through computer monitors a replay of the sequence of weather events during the approach of Typhoon Chanchu in May. Mr Tsang was impressed by the Observatory's ability to predict the 90-degree turn of Chanchu in the central part of the South China Sea, and the rapid improvement in the local weather after Chanchu's landfall. He said that it was important to predict accurately the movement of a tropical cyclone so that workers and students could plan their transport arrangements as early as possible. He also expressed his gratitude to all frontline staff working round-the-clock to serve the public during the approach of tropical cyclones. The Chief Executive listening to the briefing by the Director The Director of the Observatory, Mr CY Lam, and a number of professional staff explained the work of the Observatory to the Chief Executive, in particular, the pivotal role of research and development in the system would also have potential applications in Hong Kong in studying provision of weather services. Mr Tsang was very interested in the heat stress on human in the future.

Delang* and Yan Ng Department of Geography and Resource Management, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong, China Abstract: This paper discusses the preservation of heritage in Hong Kong using the case study of the redevelopment of Kai Tak Airport and Runway 13. Kai Tak Airport was closed in 1998, and the Urban Redevelopment Authority launched a series of consultations to give the community the opportunity to participate in the redevelopment of the area. This paper discusses the process of consultation organized by the URA, the proposals advanced by different interest groups, and ultimately the difficulties in bringing together stakeholders with opposing interests, especially with such a contentious issue as a waterfront regeneration project in a highly congested area like the Kowloon area in Hong Kong.
