For aviation enthusiasts who still remember the heart-stopping approach into Hong Kong’s former Kai Tak International Airport—famously nicknamed the “Kai Tak Heart Attack”—Cathay Pacific’s latest campaign is bound to stir up powerful memories.

Experience the thrill of a long-haul freighter flight with Aerotranscargo as their Boeing 747-400 takes off from Hong Kong en route to Dubai.

A Boeing 747-481F (registration TC-ACF) operated by Air ACT Cargo on behalf of Emirates SkyCargo has reportedly veered off the runway after landing at Hong Kong International Airport (HKG) on October 19, 2025.

Aerotranscargo becomes the 364th airline to join the acclaimed Just Planes Cockpit Series! Known for its global cargo operations, Aerotranscargo operates a fleet of Boeing 747-400 freighters, transporting vital shipments to destinations worldwide.

There’s something iconic about a Boeing 747 lifting off under the glow of airport floodlights — but when that “Queen of the Skies” rockets out of Hong Kong weighing exactly 747,000 lbs, it’s aviation poetry in motion.
