So if I am interpreting the "facts" presented so far, it appears that they took off on Rwy 16 with approx 5kts tailwind. Can any EK drivers let us know if this service was planned direct to Dubai & how the take-off performance should have been using Rwy 16 with 5 kts downwind at such a heavy weight?
