bubbers44,

took off in a Citation 500 ... max power had to be delayed until he wasn't using full rudder to keep it straight

Most of us would probably opine that this was somewhere between stupid and very stupid ...

One guy forgot the flaps on a 737 but still had an uneventful takeoff except for a slight stick shaker at rotation

Similar incidents have resulting in a ball of fire and fatalities ... that's what scans and checklists are intended to prevent ..

stall recovery lesson in a Falcon 20 and the instructor failed an engine when I went max power

Most of us would have broken the instructor's arm at the time as well ... for exposing the operation to an unnecessarily silly risk ..

common sense and long runways can get you out of most anything whether it is legal or not

In addition to MFS' wise counsel .. what might one be able to say in defence of one's inappropriate actions at the subsequent Inquiry ?
