I'm impressed. Watching YouTube videos of people in a Zenith or Highlander taking off in what looks like 45 feet. Awesome.
I realize some of it is head wind. But what else has impact on fast climb rate?
Reading posts like this one makes me realize how utterly uninformed I still am. Sigh...
Then there is engine stuff, right? Need power high RPM to create enough wind for the plane to climb, right?
If you're so inclined, please feel free to educate a newbie on some basics. I hope to one day be as knowledgeable as many of you appear to be.
