Boeing Dreamliner at Farnborough Air Show.

Check out the TnG around 1:10

Pretty impressive stopping distance on the last landing.

very cool -- that high bank high climb angle take off is pretty awesome
 
Word here in Seattle is that the Airshow folks have banned a repeat...or at least require some changes.

I found a story confirming that. The Boeing pilot did the manuever a smidge too early, getting the wingtip within 20 feet of the ground (you can see that in the video).
