Cathay Pacific Flyover On March 30th, the third day of the Sevens, Cathay Pacific Flight CX8100 flew over Victoria Harbour to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Kai Tak Airport, where the Kai Tak Stadium was located. The tribute flight was broadcast on a large LED screen in the stadium, but it was not well received by the attendees, as they were mistakenly instructed to look up through the open roof instead of the South Stand, where the plane flew past.
