Using Right Rudder After Liftoff - KING SCHOOLS Video

An excerpt from King Schools' "Takeoffs & Landings Made Easy" course. Click here to purchase http://tinyurl.com/7xcpudb

Martha shows a dramatic rear view of a Cessna whose pilot does not add enough rear rudder during take-off. Look for significant drift and a pronounced dip.

A common mistake pilots make when raising the nose wheel on takeoff is not adding enough additional right rudder when the nose wheel raises, then compensating for the left-turning tendency with aileron instead.

The complete "Takeoffs and Landings Made Easy" course available, from King Schools, contains exciting live-action video putting you in the cockpit, at the controls, giving you the sight picture you need for approaches and flares that will have your wheels softly kissing the ground. You learn how to see at a glance whether you're too high, too low or off to one side - and you'll gain the tools you need to put yourself right back "on the rail'. You'll learn how to recover gracefully from the rare botched flare or touchdown. When you're done, you'll be one of the countess KING students who say, "I learned to land by watching your course."

With this course, you'll change takeoffs and landings from a trial to a joy. You'll impress passengers (and yourself) with flawless takeoffs and landings - even in stiff crosswinds.

bloody hell, that's exactly what's happening to me all the time when I take off in flightgear :) I always end up at the left side of the bloody runway for some reason after liftoff :)

Great as always. 152, 172 are rather forgiving, but when you go to a 182, lifting the nose quickly can result in a scary yaw! (or so I hear)
