Risky IL-76 Take-off Captured on Video
The take-off uses all (and I mean all) of RWY 30 (1679 M) at Canberra, Australia, obviously shot from within the TWR.
The commentary is priceless!

Nah...He was probably using the extra runway length for "improved climb performance".
What about the 35 foot screen height at the end of the runway if he had an engine failure?

Sometimes--- on some types--- the OEI climb requires less distance than the AEO case because of less acceleration on one engine [i.e less distance covered] and therefore OEI distance [first and second segment distance] will be within the AEO TORA. i.e the AEO safety factor is exploited OEI---but, this guy definitely didn't cross the screen at 35'--- so I'd say

Too many chiefs, not enough indians even downunder...

Just to correct an important point...
I was in Canberra 2 days ago and go there pretty regularly.
That takeoff is on runway 17 which has 2683m plus another odd 600m overun/stopway. If you look at the video the terminal is to the right of the intersection and south of the short crossing runway 12/30. I have never seen anything bigger than a DHC8-400 use 12/30.

Not an uncommon sight in the west of Oz (Pearce) they seem to take for ever to get off. Im glad I dont live under the take off path, it must make the plates n cups rattle a bit.
