I saw a plane climbing out of SYZ with 60 degrees of positive attitude (no pics). I have seen steep climbs but that is still weird. The aircraft was a rear-twin jet probably F100 or MD-80 (I vote F100 cos it’s too short for MD80). Any possible reason (besides an IF nimrod replacing the actual captain)?

Take a 717 in IF and try to do that.

In Dubai planes to middle East and India Lift off early and a bit steep too to gain altitude for a perfect and comfortable descent.

Guys it is not departure procedures or any procedures at all!
Planes go max. 25 degrees. + that 25 degrees isn’t a fun thing as a passenger, more like a roller coaster.

60 degrees in a commercial jet? I’m having trouble believing that

Yes. It is true
That is in now way true. Unless you were on the plane you have no idea ethier.alot of md-80s have a steep rate of initial climb, but it’s not 60 degrees. More like 20 or 25
