TASK DESCRIPTION:
Adjust the flaps to the proper angle for takeoff. - Flaps are used to help increase lift.
Check your aircraft manual, though. - Some aircraft do not use flaps for takeoff.
HAZARD DESCRIPTION:
The pilots improper use of flaps for takeoff, which resulted in the airplanes failure
to attain adequate climb airspeed and subsequent collision will trees during takeoff.

HAZARD CONTROLS:
1 Always check the flaps of the plane
2 Note that Aircraft use takeoff flap settings that are roughly between 5-15
degrees (most jets use leading edge slats as well). That's quite a bit different
than landing, when aircraft typically use 25-40 degrees of flaps.

TASK DESCRIPTION:
Perform an aircraft run-up procedure.- Before you reach the runway, stop at the run-
up area. You'll have to perform the engine run-up procedure here.
HAZARD DESCRIPTION:
The risks which may arise from engine ground running relate to the potential for
loss of control of the aircraft by those persons occupying the pilot seats in the flight
deck. Damage can occur to the aircraft itself, other aircraft nearby or to airside
structures. In addition, there is a risk of injury to ground support personnel who may
be in relatively close proximity to the aircraft.
HAZARD CONTROLS:
1. Key proactive components for safe task completion are clear procedural
guidance and a series of Checklists for use during each stage of a ground
running task.

TASK DESCRIPTION:
Pull back on the yoke at this point.- This changes the lift characteristics of the
stabilizer, deflecting air up and pushing the tail down (known as rotation). This in
turn changes the angle of attack of the wing, which produces more lift. And the
plane lifts off.

HAZARD DESCRIPTION:
Speed plays a part. Since lift is a function of speed (and flap/slat configuration) if
rotation is performed too early (at too low a speed) the wing will not have enough
lift to make the aircraft leave the ground, thus, the plane ending up a big ball of
flames at the other end or the plane would usually just run off the end of the
runway.
HAZARD CONTROLS:
1. Remember to maintain climb speed and apply proper rudder.
2. Always have a (Vertical Speed Indicator) which tells you rate of climb. Then,
return the flaps and landing gear to neutral position. This will reduce drag
and extend the safe flying time and distance.
