I remember a video posted showing a high wing plane taking off down a slope and just barley missing the trees before the river. I've been looking for it but can't seem to find it anywhere.

Anybody remember what I'm referring to or have insight how to better search for it?

Thanks in advance,

GP

Thanks Gump, that was it.

I actually found the thread but by the time I got back you had the video up!

Thanks again, that really is a spooky takeoff...

I'm not a Stinson driver, but was that a no-flap departure, and is that the norm? Think I'd a been pulling on that flap handle as hard as I could.
