Holy crap, it was so eerie to see such a massive plane hang in the air momentarily before coming down.

^ steep due to obvious reason (Afghanistan) security,, seems like engine just stalled.. alot of airports need planes to make steep approach and take off, but in this case...looks steep...could be just the angle of recording..

It was a National Air Cargo plane heading from Afghanistan to Dubai...
Definitely seems like a cargo shift, its happened before.
Apparently the pilot reported a stall and as you can see tried compensating for the yaw and looks like he did a decent job of getting the wings level and nose down but they were way too low to ever make a recovery.
Thats a very haunting video to watch.
Cargo must've become loose and shifted all the weight to the back suddenly. Take-offs are the most stressful on the plane.
Lol no. Most stressful on the engine, sorta.

Are you kidding me? He held the stall until he got a wing drop, that's pretty impressive considering the stick shaker comes on so early in that plane.
As for the steep take off angle, ya it's stupid steep. The only time that a 747 can "do" that is if it's empty. Talking to my sim instructor this semester and Cathay Pacific would sometimes be doing like 500fpm climbs out of Vancouver on a hot day with a full load of passengers.
What i'm thinking is that the cargo shifted so bad that no amount of elevator down could overcome the rearward cog
Holy shit. National is one of our clients and one of our sales guys told me about this today. I had no idea there was a video

If I was flying the plane. I would've broken the trim switch.
