TAKEOFF
Takeoff in a normal manner. Check thrust rating mode. T/O-1 mode
gives the maximum weight and thrust for the associated runway.
Do not apply static takeoff technique on an icy or slippery runway, as
the airplane may begin to slide when thrust lever is advanced with
brakes applied. In this case, release brakes and advance thrust levers
simultaneously.
However, appropriate assessment of the takeoff distance is required
as performance data available in the AFM for slippery runways is
predicted on the use of static takeoff technique only. For rolling
takeoffs, performance data is valid from the point where takeoff thrust
is achieved.
Check N1 indication consistent with takeoff thrust setting tables (check
AFM performance tables which have dedicated thrust setting tables for
takeoff in icing conditions). Check N1 pointer reaching N1 target.
Apply light forward pressure on control column to increase nose wheel
steering effectiveness.
Check engine stable operation during takeoff run. Rotate the airplane
at VR smoothly to takeoff attitude. After lift-off, smooth flight control
inputs should be applied if any tendency in pitch and roll are felt. Use
of flight director takeoff sub-mode is recommended (on those
certifications which allow the use of flight director during takeoff).
Flight controls forces may be heavier than normal, without causing any
difficult in controllability.
Increased V2 procedures (if available in the approved AFM) may be
used if runway length is not a limiting factor.
