Too heavy takeoff for this Boeing 727

This CAA Cargo Boeing 727 overshoots the runway on takeoff due to overweight in the aircraft.

727s have low climb rates: so they called it 'Miss Piggy'. I have flown on the final Iran Aseman Airlines 727 flight from Tehran to Zahedan.

Look close, the dippy pilots had the flaps in the wrong position for takeoff!

If you look closely near the end of the video, it appears one of the engines has flamed out.

Lucky that the nose wheel had lifted while the main gear did not strike any objects, other than dirt, as they exited the runway surface.
