Let's let it warm up just a minute. OK, here we go. My mentor used to say don't move anything in that cockpit faster than the second hand of your watch. I think about that as I slowly push the power up and nudge the friction lock to keep it there. I elect to continue the take off.
Tail wheel two inches off the ground.
Whoa, not too much. That's better, hold that pitch attitude. As the airplane breaks ground, I glance at the airspeed indicator. Flaps coming up. Power back to 24 inches and 2500 rpm.
