After false information was spread out regarding flight AT811 from FRA to CMN on July 23, we want to clarify that during take-off, ATC advised of possible wake turbulence from adjacent landing A330. In turn, the Captain decided to execute a manoeuvre to gain more speed until they reached speeds that would ensure a safe take-off".
Isn't that a takeoff from runway 18, whereas the TK A330 is landing on 7R? Runway 18 and the flightpath of runway 7R intersect, I would guess, merely 1.200-1.500 feet form the threshold of runway 18. As the fire station gives a good indicator about locations, rotation appears to be rather early, although the angle from which the footage was taken could be misleading.
