Firstly I had no idea that trim could have such a huge impact on aircraft handling at takeoff, that was a big learning point for me - I always assumed that standard control inputs always trump trim settings, even without the use of any rudder (in this case). Now I know better.
Even on the light stuff it catches you out, there was a fatal crash in the UK on a new build Cessna 182s
