CFI Tips

WATCH NOW
IT INVOLVES YOU, AN AIRPLANE,
AND YOUR IMAGINATION. HERE'S
THE SETUP:
You're on a multi-mile-long runway at a
sea-level airport under standard conditions.
You're sitting on the runway ready for
takeoff in a Cessna 172 freighter. That's
right. You're fully loaded with freight (tiny
freight, but freight, nevertheless). You'll
be making your takeoff today at 2,200

rpm instead of full throttle (remember, this is only an imagined experiment). Under these
conditions, 2,200 rpm produces approximately 55% bhp. This is about the same horsepower
produced by your airplane's engine with full throttle applied when operating at its service
ceiling of 14,100 feet.
You are now cleared for takeoff. Off you go, with a distinct lack of "go."
If you're lucky (and lean forward a little), you might witness a rate of climb somewhere near
200 feet per minute. If you're really lucky, there will be a starship nearby with a tractor beam
to assist you in your climb. OK, the starship is missing from this experiment; much like your
airplane's performance seems to be missing on takeoff.
