thrust does work, press number 2 and hold it for it for 5 seconds when the game starts.

Great Video! The reason the thrust wasn't working in your video was because you pressed "G", which crashes the plane when you fold the landing gear while still on the runway. Press only "2" when the game starts, then at take off speed press "S" for lift and "c" to change camera. It is intuitive if you have flown plane on GTA. If you tell me what you used to record the game play, I can make a video tutorial.
