Forrest Byron Takes Off With Full Flaps....

Forrest can attest... It can be done.
He went to the airport very early one morning.

He had been on a night of considerable drinking.
He Forrest even brought along a friend for the ride...

Touch and goes you know......
round and round the patch....

Forrest had 40 degrees of flaps down in the Cessna...
he poured the coals to it and promptly did not raise the flaps...

Not one bit at all.

By the time Byron Forrest got down to the end of the big long runway..
oh my the flaps are down...

He might of made 50' altitude... he was committed now off the end of the runway...
the mighty engine at full power... the one good thing he did that day was nurse the flaps up..

Easy girl... touchy touchy..... milk , milk..   there we go... now we are climbing out....
Forrest suggests you never try it... but if you find yourself close to the ground don't dump the flaps..
you will settle back in.
