Yeah it is a non event. Takeoff is fun but again it really isn't that bad

how can they be allowed to take-off - what happened to accelerate stop distance?

(or is that the wrong question

Still cool - especially the engine noise in the 2nd one - is that RB211 whine?

That one was not as close to the end of the runway as the one I posted and besides it is not as close to the crowd

St Maarten is a 7,150' runway. Plenty of distance for a 747 or A340.
