The vodka-burner is rolling...!
This clip was filmed from an Australian Control Tower when a fully loaded Russian Ilyushin-76 almost buried it's nose into the ground at the end of the runway during takeoff... This unbelievable takeoff was filmed bij an unknown Ozzy Air Traffic Controller...
@shtirlic76tube Haha, lol ! :D No, I'm afraid I'm not: I worked there in marketing, and I used to have my own video-company (DreamQuestVideo, short DQV). Yep, I know FS but not Project Tupolev... In fact I have FS, but I'm not a very good pilot: I keep landing upside down in a big cloud of dust... :-/ Say, I've been trying to find your Channel on YT but I can't find it using "shtirlic76tube"... What should I look for ? If you wish you can also contact me on Facebook: just look for Axel Noor...

@DanaFritzy I hope Mriya will be useful in the future. Wow EHAM. It's so large. Are you a traffic controller?
When I was a kid I lived by UMKK. It's very small airport but it was enough to make fall in love with sky. I'm not a pilot but I like Microsoft Flight Simulator to fly my favourite Tu-154M (Project Tupolev) maybe you've heard about it.

@shtirlic76tube Hi there ! :-) Yes, I used to work at Schiphol. Don't worry, Mriya is still flying around the world, at least she was until mid '10 when I saw her at Schiphol. I saw her in the original (Russian) coloursettings: snowwhite with red stripings. Afterwards she's been repainted in the Ukranian colours, That is a very costly job, I don't think they would do such a thing with a plane that was to be decomissioned...
See my upload-list, the latest entry... :-) And your English IS good !

@DanaFritzy Oh, thank you. But I think my English isn't good
An-225 is very impressive aircraft. It is so huge I even can't imagine how it flies.
But fuel consumption is too big and unfortunatly there is no job for this beautiful steal bird. The only task this craft was invented for is to carry spaceshuttle"Buran" but no "Buran" anymore :(.
Are you interested in avation?

@shtirlic76tube FANTASTIC ! :-) No, it's definitely not obvious, I would never have guessed it, your English is too good ! The fact that you obviously know the ins and outs of Russian Aircraft says nothing: my all-time favourite aircraft is the Antonov AN225 ("Mriya" / "Мрія"), to me she's the most impressive and beautiful plane in the skies... I even like her in the new Ukranien colorsettings... I saw her at Schiphol Amsterdam Airport and man, did THAT "thing" make an impression...! :-)

@shtirlic76tube I like your way of commenting :-) You're obviously a good sport ! Who are you, shtirlic76tube, where are you from ?

@DanaFritzy I know what ATC means :)) I missunderstood you. It's my fault, sorry.
By the way, I like Dutch. Every New Year's holiday we are shown The Snow Queen on TV.
Furtheremore I read about Dutch, it's citizens, habbits and lifestyle

@shtirlic76tube Sorry, I think I didn't make myself clear: I meant the Air Traffic Controllers who are cracking jokes while a plane is almost crashing...
