Great machine for what it is designed for. We always reduced throttle and rpm as soon as practical after getting airborne, within a couple of hundred feet at least. The short field performance is fantastic, shortest runway I ever used (when light) was 200 meters on a calm day. If I recall we had a 55 kt wind limit for taxi and take off.....always turn through the wind when it is windy to prevent the wind changing sides on the rudder and snapping it across (a gybe I guess if you are a sailor) and taxi with power against the brakes when going downwind to reduce the wind effect on the rudder. Slow speed handling is fantastic......once had her climbing at 25 KIAS with just myself on board 😀
