    Great videos :borat:

    Wow i WISH with all my heart that Heathrow Airport had been like that.

    If it had i would have taken Concorde photos only people with airside access could have taken.

    Believe it or not, I like the Continental 737 the best. Hard to believe a 737 had the same tough time as those other heavies.

    That last IL-86 one I've seen before from a different angle that shows you just how low it they get over there to not making it.

    I wonder if the CO pilot did that on purpose. He climbed pretty quick once he finally got off the ground.

    Those take offs must have been huge fun for the passengers.

    I'm also going for the last video. Nice terrain in front of the AC as well.

    I see that the last video features a KrasAir plane -- apparently it's actually pronounced "crash air", according to Patrick Smith's column in Salon.

    Amazing! I would hate to be sitting by the window on some of these flights seeing the markers (the numbered markers that tell you how many thousands of feet of runway you have left) get smaller and smaller.

    Flew a DL MD-88 from JAX-ATL and we got down to the last 1000 feet of runway before we were airborne.
