Note the elevator position - it must have been left that way with the seatbelt over it.

I used to do this in MSFS 4 or 5. Drop the plane on the runway with a custom wind set to 300 knots or so and make the plane just lift off. Crazy to see it happen in real life!

Why would they leave the elevator in that position?? Leaving it at that angle will only increase lift!

You're right, stupid thing to do, but I can't think how else they might have parked it with full up elevator.
