Is there any harm in taking off at a relatively high speed and very
gently? There seems to be plenty of runway in most cases for small aircraft. If I leave the ground at 120 kts instead of the normal rotation speed, I find that I can lift off ever so gently. Plus I have lots of airspeed if something goes wrong during my gentle climb. Are there drawbacks to this that I'm missing? -- Transpose mxsmanic and gmail to reach me by e-mail. |
