Maintain torque and TOT within limits. As the airplane accelerates, an
increase in torque and TOT at a fixed power control position is normal.
REDUCE power settings as required. ROTATE the nose wheel at 50
KIAS. When airborne, select a climb speed and retract the flaps after the
obstacles have been cleared.
Do not reduce power until wing flaps have
been retracted.

WING FLAP SETTINGS

Using 20 wing flaps reduces the ground run and total distance
over the obstacle by approximately 10%. Soft field takeoffs are
performed with 20 flaps by lifting the nose wheel off the ground
as soon as practical and leaving the ground in a slightly tail low
attitude. However, the airplane should be leveled off
immediately to accelerate to a safe climb speed.
If 20 wing flaps are used for takeoff, they should be left down
until all obstacles are cleared. To clear an obstacle with 20
flaps, a 60 KIAS climb speed should be used. If no obstructions
are ahead, a best rate-of-climb speed of 80 KIAS would be most
efficient. Flap deflections greater than 20 are not approved for
takeoff.
At sea level with 20 flap setting and 5 minute power, V

CROSSWIND TAKEOFF

Takeoffs into strong crosswinds normally are performed with the
minimum flap setting necessary for the field length, to minimize
the drift angle immediately after takeoff. With the ailerons
partially deflected into the wind, the airplane is accelerated to a
speed slightly higher than normal, and then pulled off abruptly to
prevent possible settling back to the runway while drifting. When
clear of the ground, make a coordinated turn into the wind to
correct for drift.
