Often when I see a video of a GA plane doing a "STOL" takeoff, an enviable short ground roll is followed by a super steep, slow climb away - no out! If it quits, that plane is doomed.


This is a broadly English site. A "plane" is a tool usually used by carpenters to smooth wooden surfaces.
I trust you actually meant "aeroplane" or perhaps "aircraft".

I despise lazy Americanisms.
