Security cam footage of Lokomotiv Yaroslavl plane taking off. Beacon tower mast

This footage was released just a few days ago and shows footage from a security camera mounted on a beacon tower mast located about 450 metres (1,480 ft) from the end of Runway.

The Lokomotiv Yaroslavl plane crash occurred at 16:05 Moscow Time on Wednesday, 7 September 2011, when a Yak-Service Yakovlev Yak-42, carrying the players and coaching staff of the Lokomotiv Yaroslavl professional ice hockey team, crashed near the Russian city of Yaroslavl. The aircraft ran off the runway before lifting off, failed to gain altitude, struck a tower mast, caught fire and crashed 2 km (1.2 mi) from Tunoshna Airport. Of 45 onboard, 43 died at the scene. One of the two survivors, Alexander Galimov, died five days later in hospital. The crash is under investigation.
Lokomotiv Yaroslavl, which was a member of the Kontinental Hockey League (KHL), Russia's top league, was on its way to Minsk, Belarus, in order to start the 2011--12 season. All players from the main roster plus four from the team's youth team were on board at the aircraft.

when u take a close look just a millisecond after 0.11, then you can see the flaps are quite alot extended. I don't think it's as much as it should be. However, even with 210 knots and fully extended flaps, this airplane should take off easily

@Macko4000 sorry, it's my fault. I want to write that comment in another window (Audio recording from black box).
