I'll have to see what data is out there on this one, because in some ways it doesn't make sense. If you calculate the take off data using a weight that is so far from reality, not only will the speeds be wrong, but the power setting will be massively too low. Yet they've rotated at around the right spot. Too little power would give them a result more like Emirates in Melbourne, or SQ in Auckland.
