Kai Tak in the late 1940s

Received by email, with notes:

A nice photo of the approach to Runway 13 from over the Kowloon Hills. Note the runway had yet to be extended. The Tai Hom hangar is visible by the side of Clearwater Bay Rd on the top left of picture.

Date picture taken (to nearest decade for older photos): 
1949
