Obviously a test flight.

Empty A/C and a test pilot. Never seen anything like that!

There is no perspective.

It’s a marketing video, pure and simple.

All about airspeed. Impressive initial climb rate, but he levels off. Equally-impressive filmmaking for-effect.

Light load, fast speed....Partial fuel and stripped interior will radically affect lift performance....

As long as enough air passes over the wing for the weight...Voila!

Very cool though....

Looks like a demo flight for potential customers. I liked the vertical climb-out. ;>)

Tom Pipe filmed this eyebrow-raising video of a Boeing test pilot performing an insanely steep takeoff while testing the 787-9. The video, captured in Farnborough Airport in England back in July 2014, sees the aircraft embark on an extreme and immediate ascent, at one stage appearing as though the plane was acting like a rocket. It was all for show, demonstrating the pilot’s marvellous skill as well as the new plane’s durability.

Mission accomplished.

Very steep for a passenger plane. Difficult to compare to anything. Some Caribbean and other locales around the globe must do steep takeoffs and approaches because of mountains in their path. I notice this is a Boeing demo plane, so they’re showing how it handles extreme conditions. No data as to how heavily it was loaded. Those engines put out tremendous thrust.

Can you imagine how passengers would react to that flight?

F/F to 0:16 in this video and see the same takeoff from the point of view of a drone that's positioned almost in the Dreamliner's flight path.

I’d want my money back after that flight. I didn’t sign up for no circus ride.

I have only seen military jets do that previously.

I was on a nearly empty 757 that did a maximum angle climb out of Reagan National. Fun.
