Yes, I am fully aware of that. But the chance of accidently applying the brakes if something stressful catches you unaware during takeoff run is too great. Release the brakes either before of after applying power, remove fingers from the brake lever and only transfer fingers back if required. The occasions of leaving feet lightly on brake pedals and then inadvertently applying the brakes on higher performance aircraft has resulted in many tyres being dragged off the rims, sometimes with severe results.

Curious, is your panel in MPH or Knots? I’m pretty new to my A32 and figuring my speeds out for landing. Thanks

Hi what is the empty weight of your aircraft? Do you have auto pilot and parachute?

743lbs with a gross of 1320 (great payload) and yes auto pilot and parachute

Did you used to fly the Zenith? If so, how do you like the A 32 compared to the Zenith? Looking at both for next plane

Advantages of the 750 vs the A-32 Better visibility Nimbler in the air Slightly roomier Built like a truck Sinks like a manhole cover Parts are made in USA Advantages of the A32 vs the 750 Much cleaner aircraft Incredible glide ratio 100lbs Better payload Much faster Smoother in flight More stable in flight Better range Much Quieter

Just saw this video and your comparison. Can we chat? Looking at getting my first plane.

Respectfully suggest, please remove your fingers from round the brake on takeoff.

On this plane the wheels keep spinning and cause a vibration, so right after lift off you need to stop the wheels from spinning.
