Check out the 787 take off clip, it's a trick of camera angle but it does look cool........Rich Boeing's 787 Dreamliner Does A Near-Vertical Takeoff

Yes, it would have been better if the camera was off to the side so we could get a more accurate view of the actual takeoff angle. Still cool looking, though.

Yes this was a practice flight for the Paris airshow thats coming up shortly.. makes one wonder if they'll try a Dash-80 Barrel roll

You can make a Piper cub do that for a short time and make it look like a rocket take off

To heck with the takeoffs and photo tricks, I just want a model of the thing.... (Not in the Vietnam Airlines livery, though.)

Do you not like the Vietnam livery? I like it, would look nice on that Oddball 787 converted to a -9
