Welcome aboard Singapore Airlines flight SQ979 from Bangkok to Singapore. Late afternoon departure from Bangkok. This video shows the aircraft at the gate, pushback and startup, taxi, takeof and climbout. And have a look at my dinner right at the end, I took the pork with pasta i think it was. Not too bad!

I don’t think Trent 895′s are exactly weak they have 92,000lbf. And in regards to other takeoffs on other aircraft, that was a pretty average rate of climb, not by any means slow.. but yes, when you compare it to other B777 takeoffs it is slow.
They climb slowly when heavy COMPARED to when light, but yeah they are very powerful engines. Of course this video is not a Boeing 777-300ER, it is a -300.
Somehow I doubt that a B773ER would climb slowly because of weight, after all they are powered by GE90-115B’s which are the most powerful engines in the world. I also highly doubt it’s because of the winds, unless there was a typhoon.
bangkok airport design is like dubai airport’s
they climb slowly is sometime because of the weight or because of the wind..
Yes, its pretty stupid to say shit like that ^^
Does it matter?
The optimal climb thrust and speed will be calculated through the FMC…
Its not SQ that says climb slowly its the FMC!
What?
I think they climb slowly because it’s less scary. :O
singapore airlines flights from anywhere/climb slowly
every country has it’s different altitude for ascending. I’m not exactly sure of the actual altitudes, but SIA isn’t the only airlines that climbs this slow in BKK.
singapore airlines order all pilots to climb slowly to save oil
