Re: [Titanaircraft] Take off power loss pitch up

After reading your posts about practicing the return to runway manuevers I decided to try it in the 172....I set up for climbout trim and speed...When I cut the throttle I was amazed at how much force it took to counteract the trim to get the nose over and avoid stalling...on my first attempt I lost 400' on my next three I was coming in at about 270'...now I have to practice with the aircraft loaded to see what I need, but i don't think I'd try without 350' by myself and probably 450' loaded...Fun manuever at 3500' and definately worth practicing often....I've had quite a few instructors, but not one has had my do that...This site is full of interesting stuff....please keep it coming...Tim T.

Hello all,

Do any of you have experience with power loss on take off?

Do you encounter a pretty severe pitch up?

Thanks
Ed Baker
