Rich people: Let's move right next to an airport.
Also rich people: Let's get upset and complain because it's too loud.

BRO WHAT THE ACCELERATION IS INSANE! That was the shortest takeoff I’ve ever seen

[ChrisZoomER]

That sure was an intense takeoff, I love the tiny bouncy prop that landed as soon as the engines spooled up!

[richarddelgado]

The very best take off I've ever experienced out of SNA was a Southwest flight to OAK and I chose to sit in the very last row, co-pilot side window seat. I so enjoyed and loved the takeoff, it made you feel like you were in a rocket. I can't wait to travel out of SNA again.

noise abatement requirements....that is why they need full power to climb quick and level out...thank you for the video John Wayne is a great Airport...right about 7:07 in the video there is a square small body of water off the engine right above that is where my dad is resting. He was my Best you had a great

Wow, roughly a 2, 000-foot takeoff roll... that was fast! Thanks for posting!

The landings into John Wayne are just as intense as the takeoffs.

Love the vid man. Great work...If you don't falcon punch the kid, I'll do it for you... too many events all happening at the same time. Full-power take off = Annoying 3 year old = Noise abatement procedures = Beautiful skies = Higher Fares = Newport Coast Property Values = Southwest Airlines Hospitality = Only in the OC

Definitely a blast of a takeoff, (OMG, only around 20 seconds to "rotate"), with some guttural bass notes you don't hear that often. A+++, "YAA" !!! Go SWA !!!

Easily the best recent sna takeoff video ive seen. Great spool up, got up quick and steep and great engine cutback. Gotta love sna takeoffs, its like a roller coaster launch lol. Lucky enough this is my home airport. Sorry about the screaming child.

05:02 GA aircraft landing on the parallel rwy smashing into to he ground...

[lukecolley]

I’ve always wanted to take off out of john wayne because the full power takeoff, seems like fun lol.

[DanknDerpyGamer]

I have to admit, I burst out laughing when the little kid was yelling "Wee wee... wee wee wee... 😂😂😂😂😂

[MatchaCocoaDog]

Seeing the shadow disappear that fast gives you a feeling of the actual speed!! Wow!

[PaulBruinFan]

Great video. Hands down my favorite airport: clean, easy in and out, awesome takeoff ascent, and great views (and almost always great weather to enjoy the show).

20 second take-off roll, and reached thrust reduction altitude 35 seconds after commencing the take-off roll! 🚀

I can not believe no one is talking about this:
Look at the plane landing on the parallel runway at 5:00
It almost landed short 😩😭

Love SNA....After the morning rush, after 9:AM....If you're an "A" list with Southwest, you can literally enter the airport get in"flyway" lane at the ticket counter, the fast lane at TSA walk to your gate and board in 10 minutes...I've done that dozens of times

[Someonesaidthis]

I’ve been to that airport it’s really nice, always fly there to visit my grandparents...

Awesome video, will be flying with them next month! Thanks for sharing :)
