A beautiful short field takeoff from Queenstown, New Zealand aboard this Air New Zealand Airbus A320 bound for Auckland. I lucked out and got a clear skies day for this stunning takeoff from Runway 23, which takes departures out over Lake Wakatipu. You'll notice the flaps stay down for a lot longer than normal to provide some extra lift to get the plane high enough to turn back around and over the mountains for Auckland. Full flight video coming soon!
