Default commercial airline loss of power on takeoff

Aw heck Bob! I was just getting ready to incorporate 'compressor stall'
into my explanation of how I almost lost my Maule during a crosswind
takeoff today.

Gents, thanks for all the info. After googling compressor stalls and
reading your replies, I'm amazed this road warrior hasn't experienced
this issue sooner. I guess we were lucky as well as there was plenty
of runway left to bring the aircraft to a stop.
