4.5.4 Takeoff and climbing
Conduct takeoff check, (see Sect. 0) and observe page 5.2.3
(takeoff distances).
With a wheel fitted near the tip of the wing, the takeoff run may be
commenced “wing down”, otherwise it should be held level by an
helper. Be careful using the wheel brake during taxing and before
takeoff to avoid nose down tendency.
Takeoff procedure:
1. Elevator trim
- Set aft range
2. Flaps
- “0” or “-1” in crosswind
conditions
3. Control stick
- Fully back(tail wheel down)
4. Throttle lever
- Smoothly full open
5. Flaps
- “+1” on reaching a speed of about
85 km/h, (45 KIAS, 52 mph)
6. Control stick
- Ease forward, keeping the tail
wheel down (wheel on the ground)
7. Lift off
- At 85–90 km/h (46-49 kt, 53-56
mph); if flap setting “L” was used,
reset at
“+1”
8. Climbing
- Up to 100 km/h, (54 KIAS, 62 mph)
9. Engine parameters
- Check
The initial climb up to a safe height may be conducted with RPMs in
the yellow (caution) range.
Observe coolant liquid temperature while climbing.
On reaching the maximum permitted temperature, reduce power to
avoid exceeding the limit.
WARNING
Taking off in rain, with wet or iced-up wings is not permitted,
as the také off distance increases considerably. Furthermore
the climb performance is adversely affected!
