Why is every takeoff moments from a crash for these guys
How has this always been allowed đ
daygloviking@reddit
Low climb rate is the phrase youâre looking for.
kylleo@reddit
we'll never be able be able to see the chaos of aerosucre 727s again
VerStannen@reddit
V1âŚyeah lost one of those in the woods.
V2âŚhow did you know it was twoâ˝
HonorAndKittens@reddit
It didn't take off as much as slither upwards.
Preindustrialcyborg@reddit
aerosucre is the only airline where i clench my buttcheeks watching nearly every takeoff.
volbeathfilth@reddit
727s are so beautiful though.
Preindustrialcyborg@reddit
shame its being flown by that disaster of an airline
BlindlyLegal@reddit
Is it really that hard to clear the area of trees? He barely grazed them with the fuselage
Preindustrialcyborg@reddit
only for aerosucre
ContributionEasy6513@reddit
Aerosucre will likely clear those trees out with the leading edge of a wing and subsequent post crash fire.
Just give them some time, they've run out of 727 to crash.
Wish I was joking, but they have a good track record of leveling the departure and arrival ends of runways.
Helmett-13@reddit
They started with 16 aircraft and apparently have crashed 10 of them for a balance of 6 aircraft from an article I read. That's absurdly bad.
33Marthijs46@reddit
In a Mentour pilot video regarding an Aersosucre crash he claimed that Aersosucre wrote of more airplanes due to crashes than they have ever owned simultaneously.
Tlix@reddit
Because then theyâll load the planes even more and the next obstacle will be the wire fence.
davidspdmstr@reddit
Aerosource is known for overloading planes to the point they can barely climb.
mwthomas11@reddit
thank you for the context, I've never heard of them before and was like why is everyone not surprised lol
MetroBR@reddit
can't say that it didn't work
aftcg@reddit
Hot, high, heavy, pick 2.
tire_sire@reddit
Theyâre all low. Takeoff is from the ground.
rygelicus@reddit
I mean, it made it. Razor thin margin, but it made it.
ContributionEasy6513@reddit
Nah, this is huge margins by Aerosucre standards. Pilots pussied out. Probably has to wear cat ears around all day now and meow on guard.
This is paying for the entire runway:

Sometimes they take the razer fence with them:

johnnyribcage@reddit
Whatâs the deal with these guys?
stevetures@reddit
I felt inspired to slow down the first video you linked. Not at all a perfect video but wow that was close.

Latter-Vacation-4392@reddit
just watched that vid...wonder if any of those guys on the ground got decapped from the wire fence
rygelicus@reddit
Or this one. IL-76 in Australia using it all. Potato camera though.
ContributionEasy6513@reddit
Classic, the infamous 'vodka burner'
ZeePirate@reddit
The movie maker screen is a throwback
thatsvtguy@reddit
the one where they hit the fence, they also hit the shed, and the only survivor of the 6 onboard was the 70-year old flight engineer.
Muschina@reddit
The same guy who F'd up the performance calculations. That's just wrong.
thatsvtguy@reddit
I checked the Wikipedia, and I misremembered, it was actually just a flight technician who survived
ElegantAd4946@reddit
2nd video is fucking bonkers
LeatherRole2297@reddit
Came here to say this. These guys probably get ridiculed by their fellow Sucre pilotosâŚ
b_vitamin@reddit
Any takeoff you can walk away from.
Frisco-Elkshark@reddit
This HK-4544, the one that went down in 2016 in flight 157
JPAV8R@reddit
Aerosucre. The grip it and rip it cargo outfit.
The OG âif it fits it shipsâ airline.
danit0ba94@reddit
I admit I don't know anything about aerosource and it's going to show:
Is that thing overloaded or underpowered? Looks like it was barely clearing those trees, and barely gaining altitude.
Pretty sure even the 340-300 doesn't take off quite this shallow.
Joseph_0112@reddit
Overloaded definitely
Maximus13@reddit
By Aerosucre standards, this is basically a jet-assisted take off
bocepheid@reddit
Reminds me of this video of the IL-76 at Canberra. "The vodka burner is rolling."
ChrysisIgnita@reddit
V1..rotate...more rotate... kinda slightly positive climb... gear up before it hits the trees.
DoomWad@reddit
FrustratedPCBuild@reddit
TERRAIN, PULL UP.
ContributionEasy6513@reddit
Weak effort, they had plenty of runway and at-least 20m to spare over those trees!
The3levated1@reddit
Clearly wasted cargo space!
thatsvtguy@reddit
yeah, they made it in the air! didnât even crash into anything.
OptiGuy4u@reddit
Hercules Hercules Hercules .....momma would be proud.
SomeRandomSomeWhere@reddit
The least they could have done is given the tree tops a trim!
stevetures@reddit
kinda looks like some previous aircraft did already?
Popular-Rock6853@reddit
They didn't even touch the fence. Amateurs.
Landoof-Ladig@reddit
What airport?
MilloOGC@reddit
SKRG
Mazduhh@reddit
Mom said it was my turn to repost this!
Adventurous_Pea_2007@reddit
But why?
ThePhotoYak@reddit
Overweight, that's all the climb performance they have.
Adventurous_Pea_2007@reddit
Holy shit now that you mention weight I think I remember when this happened and it was a big deal
Gremlin0@reddit
Plenty of room!đ
Buzz407@reddit
Force of habit. I'm convinced they hire smuggler pilots who get their 20 missions in.
kaaskugg@reddit
Some say it's still climbing to this very day.
Zapatos-Grande@reddit
tariksbl@reddit
even just Days since Aerosucre low takeoff
EliteMoisture@reddit
lol
Mekroval@reddit
Big Air Sugar's got to make some karma somehow.
Zapatos-Grande@reddit
There are pilot influencers out there that probably wish they had the views Aerosucre gets for just their take off videos.
Twitter_2006@reddit (OP)
I was thinking about this too when I posted this.
GiraffeNo4253@reddit
Oh man my first memory as a child was in a 727đĽš. We used to fly AA and USair (early 90s) . It was looking out the window being in awe of the fields and world 30 thousand feet below. Thank you 727 for the first memory which would last a lifetime and a love of flight that I'm so grateful for.
h5n1zzp@reddit
Bet you couldnât get a credit card between the cheeks of that pilotâs arse!
Zero_Digital@reddit
I can just hear an altitude alarm yelling at them to pull up.
Chrisdkn619@reddit
Looks sketchy af
bustervich@reddit
Aerosucre: for when youâre fairly sure but not 100% on what cargo is in kilograms and what cargo is in pounds.
Chuckle_Flukk88@reddit
Pedal Faster!!
capebretoncanadian@reddit
That was concerningly low. Good lord. Nevermind the quickly approaching mountains.
dvoryanin@reddit
I remember when the 727 was still in regular use, and I flew on them regularly. I think the last time I was on one was in Latin America in 2009-2010ish... I was sedated very well.
AmericanFlyer530@reddit
This is why the 727 has rocket bottles as an option.
prairie-man@reddit
Captain Kirk: Scotty, I need more power !
Scotty: I've giv'n her all she's got captain, an' I canna give her no more.
BeenCaughtSneezing@reddit
True story: I sold the electrical tape to Aerosucre to create their livery.
ScottOld@reddit
That tape is to represent the damage from the fences and small objects they hit
ScottOld@reddit
Rare sight of aerosucre NOT using the entire runway
5043090@reddit
Either questionable piloting or a plane that just didnât want to play ball.*
*I file overweight as bad piloting, personally.
Neither-Way-4889@reddit
Low? They're above the screen height.
yeahgoestheusername@reddit
Eek
Substantial-Sector60@reddit
Maybe had some debris on the underside of the fuselage and wished to scrape it clean on the trees?
gyzmo1981@reddit
Je pense qu'il y a des dĂŠbris aussi sous le siège du pilote maintenant đ¤Ł
MrDannyProvolone@reddit
As is tradition
Vau8@reddit
That the Earth is a sphere was helpful in this regard.
AnalogFeelGood@reddit
Aerosucre is proof that Earth is not flat or else their aircraft would stay on the ground.
ContributionEasy6513@reddit
If it wasn't for the curvature of the Earth to help on takeoff, it would be called sucre
strumthebuilding@reddit
Sweet air
