But I'm not so sure anymore. Truly, how many of us give consideration
about wake vorticies departing (or landing) behind larger aircraft?


Me. I often fly a piston single near lots of larger aircraft.

Remember, waiting isn't the only answer. You can lift off well before
the larger craft and turn into the wind ASAP.


Not an option, paritcuarly in a multi engine aircraft. You lose one on
takeoff, you're straight through the preceding aircraft's wake in a most
vulnerable situation...
