congested areas.
8-33. TAKEOFF.
To aid in planning the takeoff and obtain maximum
aircraft performance, make full use of the information
affecting takeoff shown in Chapter 7. The data shown
was achieved by setting brakes, setting takeoff power,
and releasing brakes, but this method is not required.
The takeoff will be accomplished in accordance with the
Aircrew Training Manual (ATM). The PNF operates the
PF's controls on the extended pedestal from the
beginning of the takeoff roll until the After Takeoff check
is completed or the AP is engaged, whichever comes
first.
a. Normal Takeoff. After the line up procedure
has been completed, release the brakes and smoothly
apply power to within 5% of minimum takeoff power.

beginning of the takeoff roll will assist in maintaining
directional control. As the nose wheel comes off the
ground, the rudder is used as necessary to prevent
turning (crabbing) into the wind. Rotate in a positive
manner to keep from side-skipping as weight is lifted
from the shock struts.
landing gear in the event that the aircraft were to settle
back onto the runway, remain in "slipping" flight until
well clear of the ground and, as the landing gear is
retracted, crab into the wind to continue a straight flight
path. Refer to Chapter 7, Wind Components Chart.
c. Minimum Run Takeoff.
WARNING
Spectacular takeoff performance can be
obtained by lifting off at speeds below
those recommended
However, control of the aircraft will be lost
if an engine failure occurs immediately
following liftoff until a safe speed can be
attained. Except during soft field takeoff,
liftoff below recommended speeds will not
be performed.
Minimum run takeoffs are performed with flaps
extended to 40%.
To compensate for torque effect during the
beginning of the takeoff roll, align the aircraft with the
nose approximately 10° right of centerline. After the
line up procedure has been completed, hold brakes
