Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner prepares for the 2015 Paris Air Show 2015

Near vertical take off they say.

Fair enough, too.
Every transport category plane has to be able to maintain a positive rate of climb on one engine out with a full load, so this one, empty with minimum fuel and crew, can climb vertically (for a little while, compared with fighter and aerobatic aircraft).
I was hoping for a roll off the top!

For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott
