Auto Credit Based on N661US's NWA-Cargo(B747-200SF)
Saw this peculiar and mysterious scene in a video about Kai Tak(VHHX/HKX, ex VHHH/HKG), and recreated this crazy (or freaky???) scene on Simpleplanes under persuasion from friends. The NWA 747-200SF in the video was in normal operation without N2 narcelle. Created dedicated to the video and the NWA CARGO.

@SPflyer222 sad news...the current livery is not as beautiful as its predecessor, but rather good on A350s
Yes, they still fly some 747-400BCFs, but they are phasing out the -400 cargo and going to the -8, I am not sure, but I think Cathay does not plane to put 747s back into the fleet. I think they want all a350, 777, a330 @N661US
@SPflyer222 and do they still have 744BCF?
@SPflyer222 I once wished that CPA will introduce 747-8i liners for passenger service but...
@SPflyer222 Thanks!
My dad still flys the 747-400s for Cathay cargo, but they are getting rid of them, he still flys some -400s but not he mostly flys 747-8s @N661US
Nice!!! @N661US
@SPflyer222 P.S. I made a memorial livery for Cathay Pacific, and here's the link https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/0iS86K/Empress-Forever-Cathay-Pacific-747-467
@SPflyer222 That's great! Regretfully they have no passenger 747s anymore... I still miss the RB211-524 engines and beauty of the livery used since 1997 till 2016. I forgot the name of that video, but I still remember the weird scene and strange sound of the engine hahaha
That is very off for a 747 to be operating like that. My dad flys a 747 for Cathay pacific, I asked him if it was normal, he said it was not normal. Do you know what the video is called? @N661US
Just upvote if you like the original design!
