  • Any aircraft fully loaded, on a hot day in high elevation would have to use most of the runway. There are many factors involved. Not just the type of aircraft.

    He was a smart pilot waiting until the end before he rotated, using ground effect to pick up speed. There is more than meets the eye.

  • He is really good.... see my other comment.

  • I can't understand how people sit here and say that the crews are safe pilots. Either you are not pilots yourself or you are very unsafe pilots like the guy on the videoclip. I have worked with guys like this so I'm not surprised to see it but there are something called performance calculation which you are supposed to de before departure. I'm sure these guys didn't bother with that this day. Just pure luck that they didn't crash.

  • He needs some rockets to get the plane up to takeoff speed.

  • oh shisa oh shisa we are crashing!!!

  • in soviet russia jet flies you!

  • classic! love the control comments! =))
