Safely takeoff from a non-hard surface runway. | | Allows a pilot to operate from more airports. |
- Short field surfaces
- Friction, hazards
- Elevator, digging into surface
- Lift-off
- Accelerate, climb-out
| |
- Flaps &20deg;
- Turn onto runway without stopping
- Full aft elevator
- Full power smoothly
- In ground effect: Accelerate to 58 knots
- Climb out at 58 knots
- Over obstacle, 65 knots: flaps 10°
- 70 knots, positive rate: flaps up
- Pitch for VY
|
- Winds
- Rejected takeoff
- Obstacles
- Runway lengths
- Density altitude
- Surface condition
|
- Insufficent back pressure
- Failure to release back pressure after acceleration
- Insufficent airspeed before climb-out
- Resettling after lift-off
- Poor directional control
