Russian IL-76 attempts to crash during takeoff
Ilyushin IL-76 IL76 Using It All Airliners usually use no more than 2/3rds of the runway to take off. Watch in amazement as this fully-loaded Russian cargo jet takes off on a hot, calm Australian day -- and uses every last inch of runway!
Additional Info From Michelle Robertson:
"The video 'Illushin Using It All' was taken from the control tower at Canberra Airport (in Australia) -- which from memory is 1888 feet MSL. Interestingly, they have now extended the end of the runway that the plane is taking off towards by another 400 meters I believe. To allow even take-offs with a 5 hour fuel load on a 100 degree day!"
