Wow! What an awesome takeoff! Watch as the pilot throttles up the engines while the brakes are still on! We race down Runway 20R at John Wayne Orange County Santa Ana Airport and lift off steeply to the south! We then make our way over the Pacific Ocean before turning left and to the East! Flight was delayed about an hour due to a leak in the rear lavatory! Listen to that awesome Pratt & Whitney engine sound throughout the video! Economy Comfort was excellent and featured TV's in every seat! Service was excellent too and came with free alcoholic beverages! I've always wanted to film this takeoff on the 757 and finally got the opportunity on leap year day! Filmed from the Economy Comfort cabin on board Delta Air Lines! Flight 2454 to Atlanta. 2/29/20.
