THE take-off of a tricycle-undercarriage aeroplane has been carefully analyzed and the effects of slipstream included. Wheel position relative to the C.G. is shown to have an important effect on the take-off run and flaps may or may not adversely affect the run. Elevator power should be high yet light enough to provide adequate control at the take-off speed.
