How did they manage to do that AND takeoff? Would have loved to be a fly on the wall during that carpet dance.

Thats for student pilots, we all know that.

Ya, the FO is a tool.
The misleading part of this video is that the runway does not have CL lights that were working. They saw the edge lights and thought they were the CL lights. Really could have happened to a lot of crews, especially when we are all used to seeing CL lighting.

Anecdotally, last year when I requaled we did a scenario in Vegas and the ckam asked " what's weird about Vegas?
I had never been, the captain says " the lighting" or something to that effect.
