Those of you who ask how to make short field tateoffs need to go out and learn Ercoupe flying and the planes ability..Go out on a nice calm day and taxi onto the runway, hold the yoke full back ,open the throttle and steer the aircraft, hold that wheel back all the way.The aircraft will not rotate until ready to fly.After takeoff let off on the back pressure and fly . The crosswind t.o. is the same By the way if you have not tried so called stalls in your coupe go to altitude,come back on the power, slow to 65 ,push on the power and pull up on the elev.The aircraft should climb straight with an occasional nose dip .Next fromlevel flight power off full up elevator youfeal like ypu are standing still,look at altimiter you are falling like a rock. These manuvers will teach you more about yourcoupe . Glenn putnam
