Thank you. Captain is a Sri Lankan, one of the best we've ever had, who came from Air Ceylon. I will not name him though. First officer too was a local. Srilankan do have many local captains, but unfortunately they don't know how to retain talent, and too much politics.

Looks like the pilots used up most of the runway for the takeoff...this must be because of the fuel they care carrying to travel a long distance from London to Colombo...and during December there are more passengers so the aircraft is really heavy....anyway thanks for the upload its great to have Sri Lankan airline videos in youtube specially ones like these :-) ;-)

The caption and first officer are both Sri lankan. If your not sure about something learn to check before posting comments. Most of the pilots at Srilankan Airlines are local pilots.

I recorded the video because I travelled on that plane. You are absolute shit because you cannot even read the heading which says 'A340'. 80,000 have watched my video, and if you don't like it, stay out, don't show the whole world what an a******e you are!!
