Pilot DAR gives good advice; much of what preceeds his post in this thread is not so good, and some is awful. Fly attitude, use the flaps as Mr Cessna intended them to be used.. and what's this 'rotate speed' all about? It's a 172 FFS not a 747! When it's ready to fly, it'll fly!
Are today's studes actually taught 'rotate speed' in SEPs? If so, I despair!
