In a race to clear the runway, while showing off every bit of the plane’s class, this Airbus A350-1000 pilot performs an extremely steep takeoff, and it was just in the nick of time with an A330 NEO bearing down.

Airports work like clockwork, and when one plane is delayed, it spins the whole cog into a frenzy.

So in a bid to avoid the wrath of hundreds of holiday-goers, this Airbus A350-1000 pilot pulled out every magic trick that the majestic plane had and got airborne with a wildly steep climb.

And, as you can see in the video above, it was executed perfectly in tandem with the oncoming A330 NEO that touched down seconds later.
