Westjet 737 in plane take-off on runway 28 at YUL

Just got back from a 5 night stay in Las Vegas. The following video is of our take-off on a Westjet 737-700 from Montreal's Pierre Elliot Trudeau International Airport. Much to my surprise, we took of on runway 28 which is YUL's shortest runway. Considering that the flight was 5 1/2 hours long and that we were nearly full PAX, I would not have guessed we would have used this runway. It does offer the advantage of us taking off almost pointing in the right direction. We ended up using almost all of the runway. You will see us cross runway 24R/06L as well as the piano keys on 28 just as we rotate. This is nearly the end of the runway. Glad to see that the pilots calculated their V-speeds properly.

i love flying

[bellarockstar333]

I love when it starts running cuz it goes fast as hell. But I TRULY DETEST when it starts flying cuz my ears feel weird and it gets me dizzy. I hate flying on an airplane and ive only done it 2 times in my whole life. Its the worst experience -.-

Can a pilot looking for a career with WestJet live in Toronto, or are they only based is Winnipeg?
