Geez, forget heavies, I remember trying to go on a hot day in an old 737-200 with -9 engines and we'd be using up over 9000' of runway (for you aviation junkies that understand that). I always compared the feeling to taking a chevette down a steep hill trying to bury the needle---everything shaking and rattling.
As much as I hate the airport authorities (and Toronto is the worst), YYC is a very good terminal overall compared to most that I spend time at all over North America.
