but when you realize that every twin has to be able to take off fully loaded with one engine failed, you can see the capability of the aircraft when it has very little loading.
You could even roll a 787 as long as you keep a constant 1g acceleration. But I'm not volunteering!!!

Optical illusion due to the camera position and the use of a wide angle lense. No way this plane has enough airspeed to go vertical on take off.
