Smooth tilts/rolls in flight
Hello friends, this is my first post here. Great Site!!
Not long ago I flew from Barcelona El Prat (LEBL) to Sevilla San Pablo (LEZL) aboard one of the Air Europa's brand new 737-800. It soon attracted my attention that after the take-off, the plane seemed not to roll to either the left or the right but she seemd to climb out on RWY heading...I was a wreck as I realized the plane was leveled-off and no steep turns were performed so far. I was put off by the landscape I saw out of the window when I was kind of struck by realizing we were already flying really low on the final approach to Sevilla.
So, the questions are: How was it possible to get to our destination without the plane rolls exceeding 5 degrees? Did she perform any SID or STAR? I could take a look at these charts and undoubtly it is necessary to roll in more than 5 degrees, I belive. Could the ATC have issued such a clearance to proceed direct to Sevilla?
Thanks a lot, hope I didn't bore you much!
