Yes I thought I remembered seeing that one. My guess is that take-off roll relative to ground would be no different, but relative to belt might be about 50% longer + or - or some where close to that. Am I any where close?- Just watching this one again and again. I'm really surprised how dark the runways actually look relative to street lights etc. Thank goodness for the strobes leading your way. Was this your perception also, or just an illusion due to the camera/lighting etc?
