In departure configuration: 1.) Slow to rotation speed 2.) Apply full power 3.) While climbing @ Vx (full power + proper AOA to create a Vx airspeed), pull the throttle 4.) Recover Considering the swift and positive actions that need to happen (and I know it's coming!), I imagine that one of his students will kill both of them someday, if he is in fact doing this @ 50 feet. Not to mention, at a safe altitude I'm not at all worried about ground track, as I would be at 50 feet. |

He might not even be an instructor, but if he is, after posting through these "exchanges" he's had with myself and others dealing with his "CFI philosophy", I'd like to think that all the gruff dialog aside, he's learned something even though he doesn't admit it. Actually, I learned a long time ago in the aviation business that it's not admitting you learned something that matters, it's the LEARNING that matters. Perhaps something has been gained......but who knows really. It's Usenet after all :-)) Dudley Henriques |

Only for a few dozen milliseconds and then you'd never have to worry about
feeling hurt ever again. Jim "B A R R Y" wrote in message ... A stall @ 50 feet would really, really hurt. |

Case in point (at my home field a couple of weeks ago): http://www.wlwt.com/newsarchive/13219000/detail.html Although there is no official cause yet, it seems apparent that they stalled at about 50 feet above the runway. Witnesses reported hearing the power increase right before the plane crashed, so in this case, having power didn't prevent the accident, but if they had no power, they probably would all be dead. -m -- ## Mark T.
