Now then V1........
........If we all wish, then I'm sure the Capt will be able to pull back and rotate......I said rotate......ROTATE!
Can I smell something.......?!
Anyone feel he/she maybe in need of some more training on performance perhaps?!
What about this (I know it's been seen before!) as a "reverse", I like to be a Fly-on-the-wall for this approach!

What ever happened to the AF Capt who supposedly took the fence down the runway with him?

Fences are inanimate but how about the trees?
How would you like to have been a tree or even a fly on the tree. Trees and even flys have feelings too.

No camera,
BUT
A couple spring to mind
A Royal Air Force SH5 Belfast doing "autoland" trials at Brum [EGBB/BHX] in 1970.
Touchdown on R/w 33 is north of the R/w 33/24 intersection. A/c lands and engages "reverse" for a few seconds [memory hazy as to how long], puts power on and rotates in the "turning circle" and climbs at 3.5 degrees
A PIA B742, Manch-Islamabad [EGCC-OPRN] departs r/w 06
[Uphill, warm night, oh yes...the INBOUND freight is still on the a/c 
]
A "few" tiles were dislodged on climbout
we aim to please, it keeps the cleaners happy
