"it always does that!"
The Cessna 210 had five on board. My estimate was that four pax and pilot plus bags weighed about 474 kg. Not much fuel on board.
it was about 25C and no wind. Our dirt strip sloped uphill but rather than taxi to the other end, our pilot gunned it up the hill. Flaps ten. At about half way, I noted our speed as barely 40 kt. Towards the end, at about Sixty the pilot rotated and the stall warning sounded immediately and continued to sound.
We seemed to be stuck in ground effect I thought, stall warning continued. Is this how it ends? We didn't seem to be climbing. Wheels up and we barely cleared the trees.
On arrival at our city destination I asked if it was normal for the C210 stall warning to sound on take off. "It always does that" was the response.
Does it? Am I a panic merchant or did we just dodge a bullet?
