It was recently suggested to me to try taking off with full flap; figuring that
the mono guys do this all the time, I gave it a go (having previously always
used around half flap). It seemed to lift the nose very much earlier and lift
off of it's own volition quite readily, whereas with half flap a pretty firm aft
input is required to rotate and lift off around 50kts.
What do you chaps tend to do?
