Emirates 343 Question
Hi All
First post but have been a long time reader of the site. Find it all quite interesting. My background is not in aviation directly but I do have a keen interest.
I was flying Shanghai-Dubai last Monday night (27th) on an Emirates 340-300. The aircraft was full and the flight time was approx 8.30 hrs. Just after rotation, the aircraft shook for what appeared to be several seconds (guessing I would say 10) and then stopped. It could also be described as a quite a large vibration but this may imply a problem with the aircraft and that is certainly not my intention here. The plane continued to climb out, as what appeared to me to be normal. My question is this, what was the cause of this shaking or vibration as I have described, as I have never had a similar experience before. Just to add that on the Dubai-Shanghai flight this did not occur.
Interested in your opinions
