3.8.1. Maneuver Description. Accomplish a normal takeoff with 7-degree flaps. The rotation airspeed
is 120 knots and should be accomplished using a smooth, continuous pull to obtain the normal
takeoff attitude. Raise the gear with a positive rate of climb and retract the flaps once the gear is up
and the gear horn is out. After gear and flap retraction, level off at 30 feet and accelerate to a minimum
of 175 knots. At show center with a minimum of 175 knots, pull up 30 to 45 degrees nose high using
3.0 to 4.0 Gs or the steady stall warning tone, and proceed to the designated holding airspace.
3.8.2. Abnormal Procedures . Use caution when taking off from short runways, runways at high
density altitudes, or wet runways. TOLD data is critical and must be computed very carefully at each
show site. Do not fly if refusal speed is less than continuation speed. During the climb out, if the aircraft
stalls or the airspeed falls below 110 knots (whichever occurs first) unload and accelerate to
break the stall and/or increase airspeed to a minimum of 110 knots. A climb to the holding airspace
can then be continued.
