Thanks Dale, I now have better understanding of what you did. I do however question the wisdom of your instructor to pull an engine after rotation on a 1900 + foot runway. Yes! I know, engine failure doesn't care how long the runway is, but as described, much to macho for me. It will make more sense to me to practice engine out failure on a more suitable field. On a 1900 foot runway with trees ahead, one other slipup and you have a real crisis on your hands. Like to hear from some of you instructors on this point.
