THROWBACK! US Air 757 ROARING takeoff from Orange County

[@exAAstew]

Ex Flight Attendant here...the BEST airport to take off from. Loved being in the aft jump seat of a 757 and listen to the engines roar as we catapulted down the runway. One time I was on a flight out of there, the captain forgot to make an announcement about the noise abatement protocol, had a passenger scream and unbuckle her seatbelt....she was in the aisle before I knew what happened. Got her to sit down immediately and buckle back in. Talked her through it. It was her first time flying out. She really panicked. I loved the sound of a 757 Rolls Royce engine ❤️

Nice! No more RR powered takeoffs at SNA currently!

Oh my gosh yes! My first Boeing was a U.S. Airways 757 back on 6/25/2013… those were the good days!🥲

My favorite airport to take off from. Short runway blast off and then noise abatement a few seconds later.
