Thanks for the vid. That was a long takeoff roll though. They didn't have much room left at Vr.Paul

Thanks for posting the video. I hadn't seen that one before.>That was a long takeoff roll though. They>didn't have much room left at Vr.I actually thought it was fairly short. Only about 40 seconds. I think it seeming long was just a function of it being a shorter runway. If I remember correctly, the runway at Manaus is only about 9000 feet.

>I actually thought it was fairly short.Indeed, take-off rolls on an MD-11 at MTOW can be a good while longer ;)Regards,Markus
