I love watching planes take off like that. I have seen cargo planes at barksdale that use like 500 feet of runway and are near verticle take off. Badass

That thing has been a massive disappointment for the US aviation industry. Cool vid, though.

Probably shopped.

Awesome video

You can see the amount of pressure put on those wings, they're flexing upwards big time

Awesome... until you realize its probably on a 1/4 tank of fuel with no passengers or luggage that would prevent this maneuver. Meh.

that's nothing. A Boeing test pilot actually barrel rolled a 707 (without authorization) when the 707 was coming to market
