  Chapter 6: Takeoffs and Departure Climbs › Short-Field Takeoff and Maximum Performance Climb › Takeoff Roll

  Takeoff Roll Taking off from a short field requires the takeoff to be started from the very beginning of the takeoff area. At this point, the airplane is aligned with the intended takeoff path. If the airplane manufacturer recommends ... flaps, they are extended the proper amount before beginning the takeoff roll. This allows the pilot to devote full attention to the proper technique and the airplane’s performance throughout the takeoff. The pilot should apply takeoff power smoothly…

  runway is long enough or if no obstacles exist, ground effect can be used to the pilot’s advantage by using the reduced drag to improve initial acceleration. When taking off from an unsatisfactory surface, the pilot should apply ... speed. The pilot should reduce AOA to attain normal airspeed before attempting to fly out of the ground effect areas. Short-Field Takeoff and Maximum Performance Climb When performing takeoffs and climbs from fields where the takeoff area is short…

  rotate to the appropriate pitch attitude at (or near) VX. The pilot should be aware that some airplanes have a natural tendency to lift off well before reaching VX. In these airplanes, it may be necessary to allow the airplane ... lift off in ground effect and then reduce pitch attitude to level until the airplane accelerates to VX with the wheels just clear of the runway surface. This method is preferable to forcing the airplane to remain on the ground…

  pilot not flying. Retarding a thrust lever would only be necessary in case an engine exceeds any limitation. Takeoff data, including V1/VR and V2 speeds, takeoff power settings, and required field length should be computed prior to each takeoff ... make and model without an FMS, the data should be recorded on a takeoff data card. This data is based on airplane weight, runway length available, runway gradient, field temperature, field barometric pressure, wind, icing conditions, and runway condition. Both…

  Chapter 6: Takeoffs and Departure Climbs › Prior to Takeoff

  When operating from a towered airport, pilots need to contact the tower operator and receive a takeoff clearance before taxiing onto the active runway. Taking off immediately behind another aircraft, particularly a large and heavy transport airplane, creates the risk ... wake turbulence encounter, and a possible loss of control. However, if an immediate takeoff behind a large heavy aircraft is necessary, the pilot should plan to minimize the chances of flying through an aircraft’s wake turbulence by avoiding…

  Chapter 6: Takeoffs and Departure Climbs › Crosswind Takeoff › Takeoff Roll

  Crosswind Takeoff While it is usually preferable to take off directly into the wind whenever possible or practical, there are many instances when circumstances or judgment indicate otherwise. Therefore, the pilot must be familiar with the principles and techniques involved ... crosswind takeoffs, as well as those for normal takeoffs. A crosswind affects the airplane during takeoff much as it does during taxiing. With this in mind, the pilot should be aware that the technique used for crosswind correction during takeoffs…
