I don't know about saying it all, but Edwin's approach he laid out in hispost is exactly what I was trying to say, but not nearly as eloquently as hedid (and I am a lawyer, not that THAT means a lot). When you've done allyou can do inspection-wise, and it feels right after liftoff, it is betterto go for it than to keep scr**ing around in ground effect where you stand ahigher chance of damaging the airplane. In only intended my comments as aresponse to the people who questioned whether it would have been proper tospend more time doing taxi-tests to Corky's airplane.Gene Rambo----- Original Message -----
