Thumbs up

The proceedure of appling full flap during take off was generally intended for wet & soft rwys. Jacks a/c of runway early and allows to accel in ground effect whilst reducing a stage or two of flap. Works well in a/c with manual flaps, C150 & some Pipers.
Requires some skill but great fun, recommend practice on long rwys first.
