About this video

Aviation rules in Congo are not applied: this Let 410, a twin-engine aircraft, takes off from a small road in Congo with sharp 45 degrees turn in the middle of plane take-off run, and lift off a few hundreds of feet before a village. The same aircraft is then landing again on this small road. These practices allow to supply villages in the bush, but are extremely dangerous.
