"Doesnt it feel amazing to shoot down the runway and take off and land huge jets?"
In a word, no.
After opening up the link below, watch the Dutch F-16 demo clip.
Then, watch the Cathay Pacific 747 takeoff at Heathrow. If you don't want to stab yourself in the eyes with a fork by the end of the 60+ second takeoff roll, I'll be genuinely surprised.
Guys didn't/don't join airlines for the flying.....it's for the money (or used to be!!) and the days off. However, please temper my opinion with the fact that I'm a Second Officer, and my comments are based on expectation after careful observation of widebody takeoffs....when I watch the Captain and FO 'launch' from Heathrow, they're not normally on an adrenaline high for the next hour!!!!!!!!!!!!!
