I agree. You can see the nosedown elevator input unlike in the picture of the one that crashed. Makes a good comparison(keeping in mind that the Brimpton pic is a snapshot in time).

If your pitch...

What about the tail skid causing excess drag if full aft elevator is applied?

I have never taken off with the trim like this so it is not appropriate to comment unless one has or is aware of the...

One would think that if the aircraft had been rolling to the right, regardless of the reason, that the pilot would instinctively be applying opposite aileron input which may not be helpful in a...

There have been a couple of posts here suggesting that aborting the takeoff would have been a good idea. Assuming that it is properly done, it would be difficult to argue that it is not better than...

So there wasn't even a bump in the runway. Re-reading the report, it says a "prominent hump" in the runway. Perhaps the full aft trim was the reason for getting airborne early. I suppose one could...

I do note that it appears that you did not pick up on my sarcasm when I made the statement in my last post about who was at fault, so I will refrain from doing that again in discussions with you.

I'm not here to say what type of major screw-up is more incompetent than the other. Either way, one can forget something significant. I have flown a lot of aircraft using a checklist and a few,...

No joke at all. I used a checklist every time I flew the aircraft. As far as I know, the other pilots did too. At the time I was also flying several different aircraft. If you don't want to or feel t...

Thanks for your thorough analysis of this accident. You have convinced me to change my mind and now declare that the woman was incompetent and not the pilot. The aircraft owner likely is as well.

Pilot incompetence is the cause. Use a checklist and once it is complete, check your killer items(one of which is trim) prior to takeoff. A 20,000 hour pilot should be able to do better.
