    Short runway but the scenery views are mesmerizing. Nice takeoff ✋

    Scary! No.
    You should have seen the approach on the Trident in the days before the border was opened.
    I was crew with BEA/BA.
    It was thrilling.
    We had to fly between Spain and Gibraltar on a sppecific heading. There was a boat where we had to do a sharp turn them landed on the Rock.
    Could see through the Cockpit door in those days and just strapped myself in at the last minute.
    Amazing.

      @@Matty12333 No. Flights between Gibraltar and the UK are considered as international flights for both immigration and customs purposes. Gibraltar does not form part of the British Isles 'Common Travel Area' and a passport is required. Gibraltar has it's own immigration controls and visas separate to the UK. Even prior to Brexit Gibraltar was never part of the EU CUSTOMS Union and therefore persons arriving from Gibraltar were treated as arriving from outside the EU for customs purposes, could purchase duty free goods and were subject to the normal import allowances for individuals arriving from outside the EU.

      @Hornet_AviationsYT ... In my opinion, not real, a simulation. The window shots showed absolutely no people or vehicle movement of airport ground staff. Airports are a hive of activity. The wind sock was erect but barely moved!!! Pointless video really.

    No offense but over 10 min of taxi time isn't really much of a takeoff video. Such a beautiful day and view, I would have loved another less taxi and more airtime. That being said it was a nice takeoff.
