I came across this new video of the Boeing 787 doing a near vertical take off. Potholes Lake is in the background some of the video where many of us venture to this time of year and the boating area is huge, like glass most of the time and warm (around 80 degrees). It is a blast to watch these commercial jets from the beach.

Pretty cool. Still hoping to get back to Potholes one of these summers.

That was a neat video. Amazing how graceful that beast looks! The vertical takeoff was cool. I've seen some video of commercial jets doing test landings in crosswinds and it's amazing what they can do!!

Yes that was pretty cool. That big ole plane looks very graceful. The pilot has some skillz.

Wouldn't mind hitting that lake sometime. Haven't been to too many Washington lakes yet.
