Spectacular Take Off CLOSE to the mountains (Juneau, Alaska)

A take off from Juneau, Alaska in a good old Boeing 737-200 Combi using the special FAA approved departure procedure (also called "Lemon Creek" departure) for Alaska Airlines (immediate right and left turn after takeoff)...Listen to the captain's announcement at the beginning and check out how close the mountains are!! My all-time favourite takeoff movie. Please enjoy

Could you see Russia from up there?

That's an older -37, with the older style thrust reverse assembly on the back end of those JT3D's, I think is what they are. Amazing; that initial left turn on the climb-out STARTS essentially right after V2. That would be fun to do. Love this video.

@Goethewrote It's too bad your retarded mother can reproduce and the state didn't abort you, fucklump. Stop acting like a butt-hurt cunt.

@mechan9 Juneau is on the South East part of Alaska so we are closer to Washington and Canada not Russia
