“The twin-engine Beechcraft King Air plane crashed into a private hangar just after 9:00 a.m. Sunday. ... Witnesses say the plane had just taken off when it veered hard left and dropped its wing.”
Why would that be? Is there no checklist item calling up "Trims - Set for Takeoff" or something similar?
