A visitor from - posted Fri March 8, 2013: I was searching up this photo for hours under "cathay pacific 747-8" then i just hit the photo and it said"747-267B(SF)
A visitor from - posted Fri March 8, 2013: I agree with the poster who wrote that the thumbnail made it look like a 748!! I stared at the thumbnail for some time trying to figure out where in the modern world this type of takeoff could happen. Great Photo!!!
A visitor from Germany posted Fri March 8, 2013: Nothing unusual for a heavy out of the old Kai Tak
A visitor from - posted Fri March 8, 2013: WOW! No room for error there! But it's a cargo bird with nothing but water ahead of them... If they were going to take a chance, this was indeed the time to do it. Still pretty nuts if you ask me!
A visitor from Netherlands posted Fri March 8, 2013: Looks more like a carrier take-off! Nice photo!
A visitor from - posted Thu December 1, 2011: Aw ya fooled me! The thumbnail made this look like one of the new 747-8's but alas it's an old photo of a -200!
A visitor from - posted Thu December 1, 2011: Bah, A340's do this all the time... :)
A visitor from - posted Tue August 16, 2011: Loaded to the brink + hot air = late rotate.
A visitor from Poland posted Wed September 15, 2010: Close call, for sure! Awesome shot!
A visitor from - posted Thu September 9, 2010: The pilot said: V1, rotate (still not rotating), you can rotate now, I said rotate!!
A visitor from Venezuela posted Sat August 14, 2010: Ok, you either rotate or pass away... as simple as it ;)
A visitor from Australia posted Wed August 4, 2010: Great anticipation combined with spot-on camera positioning and framing makes for a dramatic photo. I think I can feel the sigh of relief from the flight crew! I doubt that the take-off was planned that way!
A visitor from Mexico posted Fri July 2, 2010: Awesome!!!!
A visitor from - posted Sat June 19, 2010: Majestic liftoff cooly using all real estate.
A visitor from United States posted Sat June 19, 2010: Im sure the pilots must have been quite nervous when they started getting closer to the end of the runway!
A visitor from - posted Sat June 19, 2010: Must Rotate!
A visitor from - posted Wed April 28, 2010: Heavily loaded for sure
A visitor from Croatia posted Fri March 5, 2010: Close call
A visitor from - posted Sat December 26, 2009: I thtink she was survey the runway
A visitor from United States posted Sun August 31, 2008: When he said rotate, he wasn't kidding!
A visitor from Canada posted Tue November 6, 2007: Just a blind guess...given that this is about a 10000ft runway, the pilots may have been taking off with de-rated thrust...meaning less than full power. Obviously this plane was heavily loaded, but I can't think of any good reason why the full 10000ft would have been used!
A visitor from United Kingdom posted Thu September 20, 2007: Classic photo!! However, someone mentioned a 'well calculated V1". Sorry to disappoint this person but they don't know what they are talking about! Using almost 10,000ft to get airborne is not what I would call a well calculated V1!! And in any event surely you mean VR!! ;)
A visitor from Germany posted Tue August 7, 2007: They paid for the runway and used all of it! Fantastic photo! 5*
A visitor from Sweden posted Fri February 16, 2007: WOW! That was close! Great photo!
A visitor from Australia posted Fri January 12, 2007: Wouldn't call it 'close'... more like a well calculated V1 and an aircraft performing just as it was designed to. Great photo! 5*
A visitor from Switzerland posted Fri January 12, 2007: Nice scenery.
A visitor from Sweden posted Sat September 16, 2006: Wow! Close!
A visitor from United Kingdom posted Sun April 23, 2006: Great
A visitor from United States posted Fri January 13, 2006: That was a Very CLOSE Call! Excellent Picture!
A visitor from United States posted Fri September 9, 2005: Almost!!!!!
A visitor from Singapore posted Fri August 19, 2005: A plane taking off at the tip of the runway! Rare picture.
