B717 Landing in Hilo, Hawaii
Visual approach to Hilo, Runway 8. The approach is flown offshore to avoid overflying noise sensitive areas. There is also rapidly rising terrain to the right of view.

Turning over the storage facility for short final. So sick
Smoooothhh
This, and you LIH video are awesome!🤙🏼 Any chances of making more? Mahalo
Easily spotted Ken's Pancake House, my go-to for good breakfasts when I'm there.
Love that particular approach. For passengers, it can be a bit of a surprise if they're not used to that sharp left turn right before landing. It does afford a great view of the downtown waterfront or bay, depending on which side of the plane you're on.
Awesome video. Makes me want to pack my bags. Who plays that wonderful music?
I used to love seeing those beautiful 717s flying that RARE approach onto Runway 3. Normally planes only takeoff that runway. And they land East of Nawiliwili and much of the land. So you never see them flying over you unless you stay Hanamaulu Beach when they takeoff, or if they take the Runway 21 approach in. So happy someone finally posted a Runway 3 approach from Best seat on the bus 👊🏽
The approach into RWY 3 is spectacular. I remember when I was young watching the 757s make steep banks to align with the runway. Reminds me of the days when Kai Tak was around!
I remember when 3-21 was shorter and it was the only runway with the old terminal pre 1982/83.
Beautiful views! I miss Hilo so much. Mahalo for sharing from the pilot's perspective!
Love that island. Nice song as well, but the singer left out the roosters crowing all hours of the night and day.
Kauai my home island. 👀🤙🏽
👀🤙🏼
Kauai was one of my favorite Islands to fly into because you flew over open ocean from Honolulu en route to Lihue. Quite often I would see a circular rainbow glistening off of the prop. Flying through Waimea Canyon there was always so beautiful - utterly breath taking.
