Taking off at Birmingham Airport BHX in heavy rain and a strong crosswind, this Turkish Airlines Boeing 737-800 shows very obvious wing flexing due to turbulence - before the take-off run starts and particularly whilst climbing away. Enlarged versions of the pre-roll and climb are added to the end of the video. The bending looks spectacular but the wings are well capable of taking it!
