VMAT-203 - CO bird - taking off
Last time I was out at Phoenix-Mesa Gateway - the Harriers would taxi to the far runway (12L), taxi all of the way down it and then take off on 30C.
These two - just taxied up to the end of the 12R - and performed rolling take-off's right down the runway (and in front of the General Aviation ramp area).
He was probably 30-50 feet up at this point - doing at least 175.
