30 years ago, as young pilot I was flying a plane on takeoff with entire family on board and made decision to cut power and slammed on brakes. Taxied off, dumped 300 pounds of weight, did short field take off and barely made it. Realized I almost could have killed myself and entire family had I not made decision to apply brakes. Prior to that event, I had subscribed to NTSB reporter newsletter and had read analysis of many accidents for 2 years, it’s what helped me make decision to abort initial takeoff. More pilot education required and less ego.

In Vietnam we landed on a short runway in a C130. We had to stop quickly. We were on a mountain.
When they came back with the C130 a few days later. When we took off the engines were running at full speed. Thought the plane would come apart. When we were climbing the top of the trees were touching the bottom of the plane. Damn good pilots.

The coolest airshow i ever saw was a crop duster in Georgia dusting the cotton fields where we hunted. It was a single seat single wing Cessna that sounded like a race plane. The maneuvers he pulled off to miss the trees were absolutely mind-blowing. Greatest air show i had ever seen.
On one long wide feild, he was so low i waved at him when he passed by. At the end of the field, two groves of trees came together. He turned sideways, then straightened up and turned the nose straight up into the sky, did a barrel role, looped back around, and came back to spray more of the big long feild. He was definitely talented!!

This is a Twin Otter and the accident investigation revealed:
- the pilots had only taken off from here 3 times prior to this
- the aircraft weighed just over 10K lbs; too much for this airstrip
- it was 1330 feet from the runway threshold to the telephone pole
- the runway was only 950 feet long
- the airstrip runway threshold wasn't clearly marked
- as a result, they left 86 feet of runway behind them
- the crew didn't do a takeoff and climb performance calculation
- they used flaps 30 for takeoff
- they had 40 psi torque on left engine and 42 on the right engine
- they briefed rejected takeoff considerations but didn't adhere to the briefing
- this was a very sad and tragic mishap that could have been easily avoided and I feel terrible for the family of the passenger that died and hope that this short clip offers a few lessons for the aviation community
