777-300ER rotation, note the semi levered gear only trailing wheels on the ground, this increases the tail clearance. The ER doesn't require toe down or indeed want toe down ever.




Rotation on a 777-200 all 4 wheels on the ground with toe down.

The Toe down is required during times when the nose is high, ( takeoff and landing )
19 deg is the max but it shouldn't get more than about 12 deg or the tail will strike the ground
