Airbus A400M Pilot Performs Vomit-Inducing Takeoff

The RAF Fairford in Gloucestershire, England, was the place to be last July when the pilot of an Airbus A400M Atlas performed an eyebrow-raising manoeuvre immediately after taking off in front of a captive audience.

In this combat-like takeoff, the pilot pivoted the plane upwards dramatically, showing off both the operator’s skill and the plane’s impressive range. Credit: bobsurgranny via Storyful
