All of you out there with some aviation knowledge should see what the problem is here. The aircraft is lined up on runway 13 and ready to roll, well until they touched the throttles then I'm sure some warnings went off as they vacated the runway, corrected the situation then took off.

Passing Caribbean Coast in Tung Chung, short final for 25L. Sadly this sight is no longer possible as MP pulled out of Hong Kong after KLM took them over. This one was 9V-SMF with SQ, before being leased to AI as VT-AIF. Shame to see MP leave Hong Kong as I've seen them since I started spotting at Kai Tak in 1992.

Nice to get one of these in the day, even better to get it on 25L.

One of the worst scheme's I have ever seen this battleship grey. Thankfully they saw the light and changed it!

Landing on 13 in the evening from Sydney in 1995. Large sticking celebrating the 75th anniversary of Qantas.
