What is likely to occur if you lift off the runway before reaching rotation speed due to ground effect? Inability to climb Increase in stability Decrease in thrust required to maintain flight Correct! Aileron down on the upwind wing Aileron up on the upwind wing Aileron up on the downwind wing Correct!

Short field landings can be shorter because the drag robbing ground effect is lessened by the greater distance between the wing and ground. By incorporating more dihedral, the longitudinal stability can be increased to match that exhibited by the high wingers.

Thrust : The force generated by the engine that propels the aircraft forward. Pilots must counteract the additional drag with more thrust to maintain altitude. Gradually reduce thrust from cruise power. Trim for level flight once you’re stabilized at your target speed. Don’t go all the way back to idle.
