Top gun type take off by a female Continental Airlines pilot, after being stuck at the Corpus Christie, TX airport for almost 7 hours, due to stormy weather in Houston. The background shows several refineries. I took the picture from 1st class seat 1A of the Boeing 737-300, but unfortunately, no more drinks or food available, and not a chance to deplane to go get a big mac in McDonalds either.
