High Power Takeoff & Climb Through Mountains ~ Juneau, Alaska | Alaska Airlines Boeing 737-990(ER)

Fun Fact: The Juneau Airport, being located in close proximity to moderate slopes, is subject to extreme turbulence if the winds are strong or variable. The mountains just to the southeast of the airport where this takeoff climbed through are extremely dangerous to fly through in these turbulent conditions. Due to this high caution, there are six weather stations mounted throughout these mountains which measure and report the local wind and turbulence conditions. This system is called the JAWS (Juneau Airport Wind System). It's purpose is to alert pilots flying into JNU of the latest turbulence reports and forecasts as well as a frequently updated wind report for runway 8 and 26. Every Alaska 737-800 has this feature and most of the others do as well. It can be located in the FMC menu and is titled JAWS. It functions similarly to ACARS (Aircraft Communications Adressing and Reporting System) which Alaska uses to get reports on weather, route/dispatch data, takeoff, and landing data. Anyways, I just thought that was something cool to share and there's a way you can also check out the turbulece reports for the Juneau area! I'll have the link to National Weather Service JAWS page attached below. https://www.weather.gov/ajk/JAWS Aircraft: N283AK Departure: JNU RWY 8 Arrival: SEA RWY 16R Seat: 7A (Premium Class) Date: September 02, 2024 Callsign: ASA186 Takeoff Thrust: R-TO (TO-2 24K MAX) Flight Time: 2 hours, 1 minute Cruise Altitude: FL330
