Unbelievable Video Footage of 747 Landings - Week of YouTube: Day 3

My grandfather was an airplane enthusiast, and passed along some of his passion to me. Maybe both of today's YouTube links will instill as much awe in you as they did for me.

1. An amazing Boeing 747 landing at Princess Juliana International Airport on the Caribbean island of Saint Martin, captured from Maho Beach. The airport is famous for its short landing strip at only 2,180 meters.

2. A Boeing 747 landing at Kai Tak airport in Hong Kong, which was decommissioned in 1998.

Bonus: Video of a 747 jet thrust shredding a car on Metacafe.
