Rolling/After take off checks

Postby Alkemac » Mon Aug 31, 2009 12:38 pm

Hi,

What information is available, relating to rolling checks, and checks that need to be performed, once airborne ?

Thanks

All dependent on the plane you fly

In my case the 912 Bushbaby, Min oil temp, 50deg C, throttle smoothly increased to full, check max rpm is achieved, check airspeed active, check oil pressure
check ASI, rotate at 40mph, lift off at 50, nose down to increase speed to 65, climb out.

Some aircraft have a bit of a shake from unbalanced wheels spinning freely, in this case, brakes on/off

Turn crosswind when minimum altitude is reached as required by your airfield, i.e. 300ft agl etc
