Ozgrade3, you appear to be a clown. Yes aircraft on takeoff can make a turn after takeoff to avoid a potential conflict with terrain. However the performance degradation associated with the turn can be more of a penalty than going straight ahead, if indeed going ahead is an option. Some turns that come to mind are CNS15, old HKG, NOU 11. The terrain can mean that any extra runway length is a complete waste in some circumstances.
Go back to your wiggly things.
