  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 ... ground run and lift-off, using ground effect as an aid, prior to attaining true flying speed. The pilot should reduce AOA to attain normal airspeed before attempting to fly out of the ground effect areas. Short-Field Takeoff…

  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 VX. In these airplanes ... 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 is preferable to forcing…

  Figure 11-19 illustrates the general effect of wind by the percent change in takeoff or landing distance as a function of the ratio of wind velocity to takeoff or landing speed. The effect of proper takeoff speed is especially ... important when runway lengths and takeoff distances are critical. The takeoff speeds specified in the AFM/POH are generally the minimum safe speeds at which the aircraft can become airborne. Any attempt to take off below the recommended speed means that…

  increase of landing speed by ten percent increases the landing distance by 20 percent. Hydroplaning makes braking ineffective until a decrease of speed that can be determined by using Figure 11-18.

The pilot accepts because he or she is approaching the extended centerline of runway…

  pilot should maintain this control position, as the airplane accelerates, and until the ailerons become effective in maneuvering the airplane about its longitudinal axis. As the ailerons become effective, the pilot will feel an increase in pressure on the aileron ... control. While holding aileron pressure into the wind, the pilot should use the rudder to maintain a straight takeoff path. [Figure 6-4] Since the airplane tends to weathervane into the wind while on the ground, the pilot will typically…
