[BITList] A fully loaded Russian IL-76

[John Feltham]

I believe that it is taking off from Canberra....

ooroo



Turn up your volume so you can hear the air traffic controllers.

A fully loaded Russian IL-76 cargo plane...... payload 1 million  
pounds!!!!

Listen to the controllers in the tower who are Australian:  Ya gotta  
love it.

"The Vodka Burner" as the Aussies call it, literally uses every  inch  
of runway........

WATCH THE WHOLE VIDEO.. (shot from the tower) You can HEAR THE  
CONVERSATION IN THE TOWER. They are incredulous-- that it makes it.  
Good thing the guys in the back can't watch this takeoff.
