Emirates NO LIGHTS!
So I was inbound to Tullamarine last night from CB in the wee hours when I hear on centre an Emirates aircraft call up after departure with their first contact with centre and also "can you please tell the tower I think we just took off with the lights off on RWY16"...
I landed 15 mins later and the lights were OFF on RWY16?? Anyone?

Can't imagine the tower would clear someone for takeoff knowing the lights were off.
However if the allegation is true, I wonder if CASA will prosecute like they did to the QF boys in LST?

Which lights....
Are we assuming that the EK crew meant runway lights? Perhaps they meant their own aircraft lights
