SkillEstablish a pitch attitude for VY and accelerate to VY ±5 knots after clearing the obstacle or at 50 feet above ground level (AGL) if simulating an obstacle.

however, after some experience the correction for propeller effects becomes instinctive. As the airspeed decreases during the climb’s establishment, the airplane’s pitch attitude tends to lower unless the pilot increases the elevator flight control pressure. Nose-up elevator ... trim should be used so that the pitch attitude can be maintained without the pilot holding back elevator pressure. Throughout the climb, since the power should be fixed at the climb power setting, airspeed is controlled…

Initial Climb After a positive rate of climb is established, and the airplane has accelerated to VY, the pilot should retract the landing gear and flaps, if equipped. If departing from an airstrip with wet snow or slush ... retracted immediately so that any wet snow or slush can be air-dried. In the event an obstacle needs to be cleared after a soft-field takeoff, the pilot should perform the climb-out at VX until the obstacle…

Diverse Departure Obstacle Assessment to 25/46 NM 4. Takeoff Obstacles. Takeoff Obstacles Notes in the “Takeoff Minimums and (OBSTACLE) Departure Procedures” section of the Terminal Procedures Publication (TPP) identifies obstacle(s) that penetrate the 40:1 OCS. The obstacle notes ... alert the pilot to the height and location of the obstacles relative to the DER so they can be avoided. This can be accomplished in a variety of ways: the pilot may be able to see and avoid the obstruction…

pilot should also consider flying at a lower pitch for cruise climb since flying at VY requires much quicker pilot response in the event of a powerplant failure to preclude a stall. Since the power on the initial climb ... takeoff power setting, the airspeed should be controlled by making slight pitch adjustments using the elevators. However, the pilot should not fixate on the airspeed indicator when making these pitch changes, but should continue to scan outside to adjust…

Figure 6-9. Effect of premature lift-off. The objective is to 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 ... these airplanes, it may be necessary to allow the airplane to 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…

Lift-Off Since a good takeoff depends on the proper takeoff attitude, it is important to know how this attitude appears and how it is attained. The ideal takeoff attitude requires only minimum pitch adjustments shortly after the airplane lifts ... attain the speed for the best rate of climb (VY). [Figure 6-3] The pitch attitude necessary for the airplane to accelerate to VY speed should be demonstrated by the instructor and memorized by the student. Flight instructors should…
