A330 rotating at CDG

I do love watching these older aircraft rotating. they take longer on the whole, so give slightly different angles.
That being said, the 787 seems to always use as much of the runway as it can at CDG...that is nothing to do with performance, just straigh forward fuel management and operational practice, I think

It’s general good practice for an aircraft to use more runway than engine when possible, to save on wear and cost. Many takeoffs are done de-rated (ie, engines will produce less than max thrust) when the runway is long enough that they can afford to accelerate slowly.
