Pilot Short Story
In this, the newest Pilot Short Story produced by the AOPA Air Safety Institute, a pilot must make a split-second decision: either abort his takeoff or continue the flight up into uncertainty. Noting that his airplane doesn't usually shake excessively during the takeoff roll, the pilot cuts the power and safely taxis off the runway. After discovering that the number four exhaust valve was stuck, he concludes the lesson learned from this experience is to trust that pestering feeling when something doesn't feel right.
NOTE:
1.The AOPA Sweepstakes Cessna 170B has since received a new Continental Prime IO-370 195-hp engine.
2. When flying at a non-towered airport, all runways are considered active.
The Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA) is the largest community of pilots in the world, providing aviation advocacy, education & inspiration. AOPA has represented the freedom to fly for all pilots since 1939. To learn more about becoming a member visit https://www.aopa.org/jointoday.
