Boeing 717 Landing At Kona On Hawaiian Airlines

January 24, 2015 flight2000it

Ever been to an airport surrounded by a lava field?!? Well now you have! Welcome to the Big Island of Hawaii and Kona International Airport! Watch as we approach over the Pacific Ocean from the North and land gently on Runway 17! Listen to that awesome reverse thrust from those BMW RR BR715 engines! It was awesome sitting so close to those power plants! Excellent flap and aileron action can be seen as well! The crew was fantastic and offered a beverage service with the choice of juice or water! Look at how dark that lava is! There is a lot of volcano activity on the big island! Filmed from the economy cabin on board Hawaiian Airlines! Flight 250 from Kahului Maui. 9/25/14.
