Whats more scary is the number of SE pilots who climb out over a built up area with nowhere to go in the event of an engine failure.
With a powerful aircraft and a strong headwind and backtracking you can avoid it, but otherwise there's a few seconds with nowhere much to go after every take-off from 23 at Cambridge.
