Takeoff performance issue, Meldreth Valley Farm, Cambridgeshire, 24 May 2015
Summary:
Whilst attempting to take off from his home strip, the pilot, who owned the aircraft, became aware that the aircraft was not gaining height. He was therefore forced to attempt a landing straight ahead, in a tall crop. The pilot considered that the aircraft had marginal takeoff performance from the strip.
