The Super Connie did not fly (Due to severe crosswinds) but it did do a little catwalk along the runway

Note the grass flying up from the Qantas takeoff due to jetwash it hit us pretty hard, some people got wind burn.

Love my Connie. I got to see her do 4 full throttle runs down the runway on the Friday night and the flames from the exhaust were incredible.

Do you have the 500 ft. rule in Australia or is that 747 take off shot just an optical illusion?

Those are awesome, the grass flying up, the super Connie, all of it!!!

500 foot rule?

Don't know that 500ft rule but it isn't an optical illusion, the camera is quite zoomed in on the 2nd 747 photo, it is beautiful watching the 747 takeoff because it was drifting and slowly lagging into the sky
