Pull the stick slightly back during the initial roll.
The nose wheel will lift off at approx. 27 kn (50 km/h).
Further accelerate with the nose wheel up 2-4
i
nches (5-10 cm) off the
ground.
Engines with 80 hp and more have a greater engine torque which must
be countered by a slight right rudder input.
The aircraft will take-off at 53 kn (98 km/h). Push the stick slightly
forward and increase airspeed to 65 kn (120 km/h) in shallow climb.
During the initial take-off phase, it is essential that the aircraft accelerate
sufficiently in order to prevent stalling, should a sudden loss of power
be experienced.
Continue to climb at 65 kn (120 km/h).
Retract flaps at a height of approx. 328 ft (100 m). This will cause a
slight nose-heavy moment.
After reaching the safe altitude the electrical fuel pump can be switched
off.
Trim the aircraft to 65 kn (120 km/h) and continue climbing. Slight right
rudder is necessary to compensate both engine and propeller torque
during climbing.
By a loss of engine power at altitudes below 328 ft (100 m) do not
attempt course corrections of more than 90°.
Quickly trim the aircraft to a gliding speed of 65 kn (120 km/h) (push
stick forward).
Avoid obstructions.
Using the flaps touch down at a low speed. The approach phase can be
shortened by slipping. Before undertaking an emergency landing in rough
terrain, turn off the fuel valve and the ignition.
