I did an intersection take-off once and used up about 15 feet of dirt at the end of the runway - pucker factor . . .

I'm a pilot and I dont see anything worth capturing on camera.

[jaxplane]

I agree, thats why they used video tape.

Hey fellas i am a pilot too . paying 2 $ per gram for hash and i can go 4000000 feet above easily and safely

[jaxplane]

I would like to have seen inside the cockpit..... Those pilots must have been shitting themselves and telling the fat passengers "Get the fuck out we're too heavy!"

Used every inch.... Probably standard for the Russian pilots... "is no worries, we do all the time."

Did the control tower have a weight of the cargo ? But The russian Vodka is great. But do not underestmate Russian enginering because if that plane has been from USA then disaster! Power is all the planes needs!!

That's to damn close. He hit the grass, and what was the rate of climb - .01? Pucker city boy...

At least flight training in Russia is better than driving training.
