It does become intriguing when no one can answer why there were NO readbacks by either the controller or the crew to the takeoff clearance.

Also,

Normal east departures from Miami are from 8R. Can anyone say if Qatar 77W requested RWY9? Also is it Qatar policy to request RWY 9 for departure because of its length?
What runway have previous or subsequent Qatar departures of this scheduled service used?


Not sure about 8R, but if 9 was requested, they'd have to cross RWY 12-30 at some point. Any ATC tapes on that part? Also, 8R full length is in a totally different direction!

As for the last part, I asked the exact same question about 20 posts ago: what runways have they previously requested or used for that departure?

A lot of unanswered questions........
